Product Description
At 6’8” the rod has an ideal combination of length for positioning a pitched bait while still being short enough to be user-friendly when fighting fish. The length also gives easier clearance of outboard motors when fished from smaller craft. The ‘POWER TRIP’ blank design boasts a user-friendly tip action that’s easy to load, while the lower half of the rod has plenty of fight in reserve once the rod loads and power is tripped!
The 2pc blank construction with removable handle means that transport and storage is extremely easy with a packed length of less than 1.4m.
The handle section is boat-friendly for a wide range of rod holders and the reel height is comfortable to fish with by a wide range of anglers.
Starting at the butt end, an alloy gimbal fitting locks the outfit in place when in a rod holder or gimbal belt. The rear grip is a hard-wearing ‘slick butt’ synthetic rear grip that guarantees smooth operation when moving the rod into and out of rod holders.
The Fuji reel seat carries the longer ‘LD’ locking hood for easier tightening of a game reel and an alloy extension makes it easier to fit a wide range of trolling reels.
The fore grip is a long x-hard EVA in blue Camoufish colour that’s custom shaped for fish fighting, and all handle components are trimmed with gun metal coloured alloy separators and checks.
Ian’s guide train of choice for this rod is the Fuji ‘Slim Ring’ SiC ceramics in KW frame style for tangle-free operation, including an extra-large stripper guide. This gives smooth operation for both free-spooling and fighting, excellent knot clearance for all conventional knot types and low line friction via SiC ceramics, stainless steel frames are the latest shiny grey colour plating.
