On this Episode of On the Cast, Daiwa's own Tom Slater joins Dylan and Mitch on the microphone to have an in-depth chat about his roll as Daiwa Australia's Product Development Manager. The boys talk about what led Tom into his roll and discuss all things tackle development by taking deep dive into the innovation behind some of the best gear available on the market. Tom runs through some of the more 'new age' tactics to hit the Australian Bass and Bream scene and discusses the demands that come with designing gear to keep up with these ever evolving trends in both the tournament and amateur angling fields.
