Rayz integral

Main image

Lure/Target:

  • Lure = Small minnows
  • Lure = Jigs
  • Lure = Spoon baits
  • Trout

Rod Concept:

  • Packable series following the Rayz concept
  • The series of packable rods is a collection of essential elements for trout rods, from minimalist models for headwaters fishing to backpacker models for expedition fishing, inheriting the operability and ease of use of Rayz rods, and is useful in a variety of fields.

Features:

<Blanks>
  • Following the basic Rayz concept of “slim”,“lightweight”, and “taut main tone”, the specifications have been optimized for each application.
  • The short model for headwaters uses ultra-low modulus carbon in the tip section for flexible action.
  • The long model for expedition fishing uses mainly medium modulus carbon blank for versatility and long castability.
  • The blank is painted a dark blue color that shines deep blue in the light.
<Guides>
  • K-guide with stainless steel frame and SiC ring is adopted.
  • The height of the foot has been adjusted to achieve a balance of toughness and a sense of unity with the blank for smooth line release.
  • Compatible with both monofilament and PE lines.
<Grip>
  • Natural wood material and Nishijin texitle carbon pipe are fused together.
  • The unique grain of the wood and the weave of the Nishijin brocade expresses a one-of-a-kind design.
  • The grip end has an original rubber cap to prevent slipping and scratching.
  • The wood grain is a natural material, so no two pieces are alike.
  • The wood grain may deteriorate depending on usage conditions.
<Design>
  • The joint mark is used between #3 and #4 of RZI755S-ML and RZI845S-MH.
