Rod Concept:

Specialization x Evolution
  • In order to respond to the different strategies for jigging in coastal waters according to the field and target, we have concentrated the necessary elements for each scene, such as sensitivity, operability, and power, and evolved this rod into a specialized jigging rod.
  • This one-of-a-kind concept opens up a new jigging scene.

Features:

<Blanks>
  • Blank material and action are pursued for each model according to the target and field strategy.
  • C・N・T composite in the butt section improves the strength of the blank and assists the angler.
<Guides>
  • Titanium frame and SiC rings are used, and K-guides and RV guides are placed in the right places to maximize the power of the blank.
<Grip>
  • Highly reliable DPS seat is used for the spinning type, and PLS seat for the bait casting type.
  • Part of the seat section is made of carbon pipe with NISHIJIN-textile specifications.
