Daiwa Ninja X Tele 1208TH Telescopic Fishing Rod – 11.81 ft, 8-Piece, 1.76–3.53 oz

Versatile, telescope-friendly design for all-round fishing

The Daiwa Ninja X Tele 1208TH is built for anglers who value compact transport without sacrificing action. The rod blends premium carbon fiber blanks with tread-wrapped guides to deliver a highly responsive feel and precise lure control across a wide range of techniques.
