The Salty Stage, a rod suitable for all fish species and suited to any saltwater game, has undergone its first full model change in 10 years.
This model employs Abu Garcia's proprietary TAF (Triarchy Force) blank manufacturing method, previously only available on high-end models.
The blanks are made from 100% domestic carbon and are completely unpainted, featuring FUJI SiC-S guides.
The XSBC-842M is a sea bass model.
This 8-foot, 4-inch, medium-action, super-versatile baitcasting model is designed for use with lures around 12g, the standard for sea bass fishing.
The flexible tip and belly sections can withstand the strong pull of a large sea bass, while the powerful butt section delivers powerful reeling. Although this is a baitcasting tackle, it doesn't rely solely on power; instead, it realizes the bending-to-catch concept with the TAF manufacturing method and nano carbon.
This reel offers the advantages of a baitcasting model, such as casting accuracy, reeling torque, and quick handling, while also boasting high versatility.
