I have this graphite Daiwa rod and noticed the protective plastic "coating" has started to peel in this particular spot. Is there something I can apply to this area to stop it?

Ask this in the Rod Builders Forum. They'll get ya fixed up. Brian.

You could mix up some clear epoxy and put on that spot. Clear nail polish would work as a quick fix too. I’d very very carefully take a razor blade and cut/score around the area and peel off the lifted epoxy. Not sure if that part is something required but it makes sense to me. It would give it a place to stop peeling. Kinda like rust repair on a car. You have to go further out than just where the rust is. 

I think this comes from being in contact from plastic baits. 

 

Another vote here for the clear nail polish trick.
