The GT game demands precision and finesse in lure manipulation despite the aggressive nature of the fish. A rod designed for GT fishing must be versatile enough to accommodate various segmented lures for selective fishing. We rigorously tested these three models in challenging locations like Tanegashima and Tokara islands to refine our vision of the ideal GT rod. Balancing lightweight for all-day casting, user-friendliness, toughness, and torque to maintain control, we aimed to harmonize these contrasting elements. This series is dedicated to anglers genuinely pursuing and targeting GT fish with seriousness and dedication.
Inpaticular, this model, indicated as the "Stick Bait," excels in manipulating diving pencils or stick baits with sensitivity. Its flexible tip section allows for delicate maneuvering of the diving pencil, enabling both short and long stroke actions without popping it out of the water's surface. The butt section boasts sufficient toughness to enable anglers to control fish at their discretion. With a well-balanced blank, exceptional casting feel, and high operability, the 710/8 is a versatile choice suitable for targeting not just GT but also larger species like kingfish or yellowfin tuna.
