Zenaq Fokeeto Ikari DBL Jigging Rods
With the success of the existing Fokeeto Ikari Rods, in 2024 Zenaq developed the DBL iteration of the Ikari to provide a world-class rods for anglers chasing ultimate big games. The DBL models fuse the Carbon X Carbon Structure of original Ikari blank with the new DBL Structure, yielding unprecedented fighting power. The DBL Structure is Zenaq's newest innovation in rod manufacturing, which is a patent pending optized fiber direction of the material, layering of material, amount of resin and finally the taper design of the mandrel. These items come together in enhancing the repulsize power of the blank to allow anglers to excert the full drag pressures modern reels can on their quarry. DBL Strucuture also greatly reduces angler fatigue through the action of the blank’s slow inward bend. All rods are also constructed with Zenaq's hexagon grip for all day comfort.
Versaitility of the original Ikari series has not been lost however, as the Ikari DBL rods can still impart meaningful action to all manner of jigs in varying conditions: heavy jigs in deep waters, lightweight jigs in shallow areas, long jigs, slow jigs, and more.
All conventional rods are spiral wrapped for right hand retrieve reels.
