Zenaq - Tobizo TC83-150G Type R

$1,74070

The TC83-150G Type R is Zenaq’s perfectly balanced crossover rod for GT popping and tuna stickbaiting, targeting fish in the 20–80kg range. Combining the best traits of both worlds, it blends the backbone of a GT rod with the casting finesse of a dedicated tuna stickbaiting rod.

Built from TORAYCA® T1100G carbon with Nanoalloy® resin and fitted with Zenaq’s Hexagon Reel Seat and Hexagon Grip, it offers exceptional lure control, comfortable handling, and the strength to stand up to brutal drag pressures. The blank has just enough tip sensitivity for accurate stickbait action, yet the power to pop large GT lures without compromise.

Optimised for lures in the 90–180g range – with a sweet spot around 150g – the TC83-150G casts long, works lures precisely, and has the torque to stop fish before they reach the reef. Lighter and less fatiguing than oversized GT rods, it allows anglers to keep casting and stay sharp all day.

Key Features:

  • Length: 8’3”
  • Lure Weight: 90–180g (best ~150g)
  • Line: PE Max #8
  • Recommended reel size: SW10000–20000
  • TORAYCA® T1100G carbon + Nanoalloy® resin for high strength and elasticity
  • Balanced action for both GT popping and tuna stickbaiting
  • Hexagon Reel Seat – palm-fitting, anti-wobble grip for casting and fighting
  • Hexagon Grip – ergonomic foregrip for comfort and precision
  • Built for large inshore and pelagic species: GT, yellowfin, and bluefin tuna

For anglers wanting one rod to cover both heavy stickbait and popper work, the TC83-150G Type R delivers the range, control, and muscle to handle the toughest battles.
