About this rod

Precision meets brute strength — for GT anglers who demand total control

The OceanRidge PowerFight GT 711 Nano is a high-performance topwater rod built for seasoned anglers chasing giant trevally in some of the harshest environments on the planet. This model features Ripple Fisher’s Nano blank technology, developed with Toray’s NANOALLOYĀ® materials, resulting in a rod that’s stiff, incredibly sensitive, and brutally strong under load.

Designed for anglers with the experience and strength to match its capabilities (recommended for 70kg+), the GT 711 Nano excels at working both small and large cup-faced poppers and diving stickbaits with precise, deliberate control. The fast-reacting blank transmits subtle changes in current, helping you stay fully in tune with your lure — even when GTs are being picky.

When it’s time to fight, the 711’s powerful butt section delivers serious lifting force, capable of surfacing fish over 50kg simply by loading the rod and letting the blank do the work. This is a rod for anglers who fish with intention, skill, and strength.
