  • 7ft | 2pc
  • 80 – 220g
  • PE10-12

Built for anglers targeting truly monstrous bluefin tuna, this heavy-duty offshore rod is designed for high-stick loading and straight pumping fight styles. The shorter blank places the bending point closer to the body, dramatically reducing angler fatigue while delivering extreme lifting power and control when fighting tuna up to 200kg+.

  • Short power-focused blank – bending point set closer to the angler to reduce load and body stress
  • Extreme lifting strength – power comparable to BT76 and BT73 with a significantly higher breaking point
  • High-stick & straight pump ready – purpose-built for aggressive stand-up tuna fighting techniques
  • Boat-side manoeuvrability – enough length and leverage to work around the bow and deck obstacles
  • Fuji Super Ocean guides – built to handle heavy drag pressures and thick PE line smoothly
  • 2-piece grip joint construction – strength-focused design with transport convenience
