■Challenge to 400g
The NEW Tournament Light Rod Case is designed to be significantly lighter in weight with an eye toward use in competitions. The target value is minus 400g. We aimed to reduce the weight of the previous model 135R, which was approximately 3.0 kg, to around 2.6 kg. It’s only 400g, but it’s only 400g. This weight is equivalent to about two 5.3m class Fukase rods, and about one 5m jade handle.
First, the long pockets that were placed on both sides in the previous model are now only on one side. Even with this, there is enough space to store two 75cm hisshaks, a ball frame, and other small items such as a spare Harris and a small float pouch. Next, we reviewed the metal parts around the handle and shoulder belt to reduce weight here as well.
Although excessive parts have been eliminated after considering the intended use, specifications related to rigidity and protection, such as the main body with a built-in hard PP board and the hard reel protector that protects the reel, follow the previous model.
A rigid and light rod case is as powerful as a tackle. The new tournament light rod case will support stress-free fishing not only in competitions but also on private fishing trips.
