DEEP ODYSSEY BGX

Deep-sea fishing relying entirely on sensory perception. Approaching it with a rod that vividly expresses bites not only enhances the catch, but also multiplies the joy of fishing itself.

alphatackle field staff "DEEP MASTER Teru Okamoto" has poured all the accumulated expertise from over 40 years of deep-sea fishing exploration into the creation of "DEEP ODYSSEY," assembled with the MPG ULDP system. Reigning as the ultimate deep-sea rod for 16 years, it has continued to dominate deep-sea fishing scenes around the world.

In 2024, after 16 years, it undergoes a rebirth. MPG is a unique material within the realm of glass, possessing numerous distinctive points. Despite falling into the category of glass material, it surpasses others in resilience, resulting in lightweight blanks. This characteristic directly links to the essential sensitivity required for deep-sea fishing and manifests as a "force" that can lift the target fish.

Deep-sea fishing that inevitably relies on 100% sensory perception. Approaching it with a rod that exhibits rich sensitivity is not only about the catch but also makes the act of fishing itself many times more enjoyable.

Handling a single rod tip on the undulating edge of a ship in the open sea while casting a line well beyond 1000 meters is the most challenging aspect of rod crafting. The MPG material contributes significantly to capturing contacts with the target fish distinctively from other fish, preventing the fish mouth from snapping, and skillfully lifting the fish.

Leveraging the characteristics of this MPG ULDP material, the DEEP MASTER Teru Okamoto's philosophy of "feeling the value of a single fish and experiencing the joy of deep-sea fishing" is embodied in this series. Focusing on the symbols of deep-sea fishing, "Golden Eye Snapper" (Kinme, Beryx splendens) and "Beniakou" (Sebastes iracundus), it starts with a luxurious gold wrap finish that enhances its sophistication.
