About this rod

This is a true power rod built for anglers targeting bluefin tuna pushing well beyond the 200kg mark under sustained, extreme drag pressure. Designed for long, drawn-out fights, the blank’s bending point is positioned closer to the angler, allowing 15kg+ drag settings to be held for extended periods with reduced physical strain and maximum control.

  • High-drag power blank – engineered to withstand prolonged battles at 15kg+ drag
  • Angler-centric bend point – load set closer to the body to reduce fatigue in long fights
  • Large lure authority – excels when throwing big lures matching dorado-sized bait
  • Surprisingly versatile tip – lightly set tip handles sinking pencils down to 60g
  • Regular fast action – blends lifting power with responsive control under pressure
  • 2-piece grip joint build – strength-focused construction with practical transport length
