The rod name is “JP5 SWITCH”.
From modern spey to the commonly known overhead cast, fly casting has become more diverse these days.
The pros and cons of fishing styles vary depending on whether the rod is hard or soft.
The JP5 uses a medium action that is neither too hard nor too soft so that you can fully feel the loading time and bending when casting to accommodate a variety of casting styles.
This makes it a rod that can be used in many fields, conditions, and casting styles.
The top guide is made of SIC arowana.
By making the top guide, which has the most interference with the line, SIC, it also has the long casting performance unique to high-numbered rods.
The blanks are made of medium-elasticity 30T & 36T composite carbon, which shows a flexible “tenacity” during fights that high-elasticity carbon does not have.
It is a 5-piece rod with a storage dimension of 72 cm.
It is convenient for carrying and air transport during expeditions.
It is a long-awaited release that will become a “rod you want to have.”
