FRP Blank for Heavy Tuna Loads
The rod uses a solid epoxy FRP blank designed for durability and controlled flex under sustained offshore pressure.
For trolling applications, this construction helps absorb sudden strikes and heavy fish runs while maintaining the strength required for extended fights. The heavy-power design is better suited to high-load conventional tackle than lightweight casting-oriented blanks.
30–130 lb Line Classes for Tuna Trolling
The series covers three clear trolling categories:
30–50 lb
Suitable for lighter offshore trolling programs and smaller tuna applications.
50–80 lb
A balanced line class for general bluewater tuna trolling and medium-heavy conventional tackle.
80–130 lb
Designed for heavier trolling setups where larger reels, stronger line, and increased fighting pressure are required.
This three-level structure gives distributors a simple SKU range without changing the overall rod design.
Roller Guides for Sustained Line Pressure
The 5+1 roller-style guide system is designed to control line during trolling and long fish fights.
Compared with conventional fixed-ring guides, roller components help reduce line friction under sustained tension while supporting heavier line classes.
Key benefits include:
- Smoother line movement under load
- Reduced friction during long runs
- Stable heavy-line control
- Better suitability for offshore trolling
Detachable Bent Butt for Fighting Leverage
The detachable bent-butt configuration is designed for trolling setups where rod-holder positioning and fighting leverage are important.
The bent handle helps position the rod more effectively during heavy trolling loads and can improve control when the rod is used with offshore fighting systems.
The detachable design also simplifies storage and transport.
