21 SHIBUKI

 

Genuine Light Game Rod Series Only MPG Can Make

“What is the genuine light game rod?” Most light game rods are made from the carbon material because using the carbon material is a simple way to reduce the weight of the rod. However, the rods made from carbon are always stiff and not enough flexible to be used for a wide variety of fishing methods. The genuine light game rod that alphatackle imagine is the rod that the angler can enjoy several kinds of fishing with one rod, with beautiful bending curves.
To make such a genuine light game rod, the development team of alphatackle selected 100% MPG as material for the 21 SHIBUKI. The features of MPG, lightness and versatility match to the demand to light game rods and provide always exciting and thrilling games with each kind of fishes. Not only it’s an enjoyable rod with the beautiful bending curve, the flexible and powerful blank has a great performance to protect the leader line and to lift the fish up. The guides are set spirally to reduce the weight of rod and the rate of tangling line. As maintaining the durability of butt joint like the complete 1-piece rod, the sensitivity from lightness is improved. There are 2 sub-series separated in accordance with the rod’s actions. The “F” models are the rods with the regular-fast (7:3) action to move the rig technically. The “R” models are the rods with regular-slow (6:4) action to have the exciting fight with fish with less hook-out. Both of 2 types have the unique features of MPG material, that is, the flexibility, light weight, bounce-back force durability and torque that are not with carbon rods. All these features make the light game more exciting and thrilling.

FEATURES

  • SGS (Spiral Guide System)

    The spiral arrangement of the guides reduces the torsion of the tip section and supports the original performance of the blank. By reducing number of the guides, the rod is lighter and more sensitive. The rate of line tangling is also less than the normal arrangement.

     

  • CARBON MONOCOQUE HANDLE

    The carbon monocoque handle improves the sensitivity more.
