Exclusive Rod with Shape-Memory Titanium Alloy “CTS” for Kada-Madai

An exclusive rod for special “sabiki” fishing in Kada area of Wakayama pref. targeting “madai” (red snapper). We have been working on rods that adapt to this unique traditional fishing method for many years, and we have gathered all that know-how to this rod. Rod action, blank material, guide setting... We reexamined all the elements that make up the rod and realized the optimum taper for “Kada-madai” fishing style.

In Kada-madai fishing, it’s especially important to let the rig pass just near the structures as grasping the shape of the bottom. To improve sensitivity for grasping the bottom, we adopted the shape-memory titanium alloy tip section. It’s easy to clearly image the ups and downs of the bottom and higher-level attacks are possible. Enjoy the traditional fishing method with this state-of-the-art tackle.
