Lew’s Report
Lew's Mark Zona Signature Rod
Team Lew’s has introduced a Signature Series of rods including some specifically designed by Kevin VanDam and Mark Zona.
What sets the Signature Series apart from other rods in the pro model space is FOCAS Blank technology. This multi-layered graphite blank production process - used exclusively by Lew’s - delivers 75% greater tip strength and overall blank durability. And most critically, this innovative strength design preserves superior sensitivity.
Signature Series rods also feature next WINN’S generation polymer Dry-Tac ULTRA Grips, delivering complete rod control. With the Dry-Tac Ultra system, anglers will experience tighter, more accurate casting, more controlled fish fighting, and all-day comfort.

Manufactured in limited quantities, the new Tatula SV103 Limited Edition baitcaster is loaded with features that anglers will find advantageous to diverse bass fishing scenarios.
Much like a limited edition automobile, the Tatula SV103 Limited Edition is the race car of the Tatula SV Series with cool aesthetics and deluxe features. In-house at Daiwa a team of designers and product development team focused on both the look and operation of the reel to bring fans of the Tatula family a special option unlike any other reel to date. The goal was to keep the Tatula family cool, innovative, and alive. That has most certainly been accomplished with this gem of a baitcaster.

Seaguar’s New Tactx Camo Braid Packaged with Fluorocarbon Leader
Seaguar not only is introducing Tactx, a new four-strand braided line with a natural camouflage color that reduces line visibility, but will include a 5-yard Seaguar fluorocarbon leader inside each box.
“TactX Braid is complement to our new BasiX fluorocarbon mainline, where we’re supporting the millions of anglers who are either fishing for the first time, getting reacquainted with the sport or managing a tight budget” said Gerry Benedicto, Seaguar General Manager.
TactX is a precision casting braided line with features that make it a perfect choice for everyday anglers. It is engineered to maintain its perfectly round shape and stay firm to minimize rod tip wrapping and wind knots. When spooled onto a reel, it packs tightly without cutting into itself, which also helps reduce dreaded backlashes.
