Naturally Born, the Ultimate Blank
Bamboo fiber is still considered one of the ideal materials among rod builders.
The vertical fibers convey the subtle nuances of the water to your hand,
The "bamboo nodes" that sprout alternately on the left and right sides distribute the load on the rod evenly.
It also has a unique sticky texture that creates a characteristic sweet arc.
By generously using the finest Hotei bamboo, carefully selected from the many types of bamboo available, we have created a blank that makes the most of the rationality of bamboo.
The concept is "a fishing experience that feels like you're losing."
It's not just about catching fish,
"Satisfy your fishing spirit and enjoy every encounter with a fish to the fullest."
This is a philosophy that has been passed down through generations of Japanese fishing rods and is embodied in the IPPON45HY.
The concept is "a fishing experience that feels a little bit like losing."
This rod is designed to allow you to fight on equal terms with the fish.
It has sufficient strength, yet also gives off a raw feeling that makes you feel somewhat precarious.
