“Gamakatsu” is one of the biggest giant fishing company especially for “ISO” rock shore freshbait fishing.
Gamakatsu’s fishing rods are high quality, reliable and loved for decades by Japanese ISO anglers.
And this shore jigging rod is made and released by that Giant Gamakatsu – by telescopic system.
Long Length, Short Closed Length
The biggest feature of this Gama Iso Metal Cast is telescopic system. All models have 11’0 (3.35m) length but the closed length are only around 125cm.
So when you access to ISO rock area it’s easier to carry.
Normally, telescopic is told as weaker than jointed system, but this Gama Iso Metal Cast has Torayca ® T1100G – Toray’s original carbon material, especially for space exploration – and Nanoalloy ® – again Toray’s original polymer technology – so the blank is very light and strong.
Telescopic jointed part bends super smooth by Gamakatsu’s orginal technique ASD – Active Sus Design, that is already featured to other ISO float fishing rods.
The shore jigging rod, with great feedback of all the tech and experience coming from ISO rock fishing – such a trustful shore jigging rod is here.
