Zenaq Tobizo Popping Rod
Encompassing over 20 years of experience in building offshore popping rods, the Tobizo offshore rods are the pinnacle of Zenaq's innovation. Translated from Japanese, "Tobizo" means "distance", and this is what this rod excels at. Built from the ground up with new Toray T1100G carbon which also features nano-alloy technology, this material gives the rods immense lifting power for their weight, through a parabolic action which is designed to beat on the fish, instead of the angler, while also giving the angler long casts to target busting fish from yards away. All rods are built with a proprietary Zenaq hexagonal front grip which gives the angler maximum grip strength, while also allowing for precise lure control when working stickbaits or poppers. TC80-50G and TC80-80G are finished with Fuji Titanium RG guides, while all the other rods are finished with Fuji Ocean Guides. All rods incorporate a Fuji DPS reels seat.
Please note: TC80-50G comes with single-footed running guides, while TC80-80G running guides are double-footed.
