DAIWA Kyokuei MG 82HH-200

This multi-game rod seamlessly blends lightness, sensitivity, and power at a high level, allowing for enjoyable game fishing even in deep waters and during battles with large fish. The rod features the MG (Multi-Game) concept, emphasizing exceptional maneuverability and power, and is equipped with the ZERO-SEAT, which offers optimal hold and lightness for use with electric and baitcasting reels. The combination of 'SMT' (SuperMetalTop) and 'AGS' (Air Guide System) delivers sensitivity that surpasses traditional game rods. Using the ESS (Expert Sense Simulation) theory, the rod achieves an ideal balance of flexibility and control.

Key technologies include:

• ESS (Expert Sense Simulation):

  

  This design system analyzes and optimizes the rod's performance by interpreting the strain energy generated when the blank bends. This system helps create rods that align more closely with anglers' needs by incorporating both physical data and sensitivity feedback.
• SMT (SuperMetalTop):

  

  DAIWA’s unique technology uses super-elastic titanium alloy at the rod tip, offering heightened sensitivity that surpasses carbon-based materials. The metal’s resilience ensures strength and durability while providing a flexible tip that amplifies even the slightest bites.
• AGS (Air Guide System):

  

  The lightweight carbon frame in the AGS contributes to increased sensitivity by transmitting signals directly to the blank without absorption, outperforming traditional titanium guides. The weight reduction also improves overall sensitivity and performance.
• V-JOINTα:

  

  By using nano-alloy material in the joint sections and DAIWA's precision manufacturing, this joint technology enhances strength and smooth bending curves, providing the benefits of a two-piece rod with the strength of a one-piece.
• ZERO-SEAT:

  

  A new reel seat design that focuses on comfort and ease of use, allowing anglers to enjoy fishing without strain.
• X45 Technology:

  

  Prevents rod twisting by incorporating a 45° bias cross-carbon fiber wrap, significantly enhancing power, sensitivity, and handling during casting, action, and fights.

■ Achieving High Sensitivity with the Combination of ''AGS' and 'SMT'':


The combination of 'AGS' (Air Guide System) and 'SMT' (SuperMetalTop) enables exceptional sensitivity, allowing anglers to detect even the faintest bites that were previously undetectable. This heightened sensitivity gives anglers a clear sense of strikes, enabling them to take the initiative and adopt a more aggressive approach to fishing

■ Kyokuei New Design:


The new design features a matte-finish name section, enhancing its sleek and refined appearance more than ever before. Additionally, the entire rod is coated in ocean blue, further elevating the "Kyokuei" series' sense of presence and distinction

■ The Ideal Seat: ZERO_SEAT, Designed to Be Unnoticeable:


The ZERO_SEAT is designed to feel as if it’s not even there, offering the perfect grip experience. It features a center grip optimized for use with electric reels, crafted from carbon fiber-infused Air Sensor resin, ensuring a lightweight yet sturdy hold. This enhances overall grip performance while maintaining comfort during long fishing sessions

■ Kyokuei New Nut (with Engraved Marking):


The rod features a newly designed nut with engraved markings, adding both functionality and a refined aesthetic to the overall design, further enhancing the premium feel of the Kyokuei series

■ Bat Length Optimized for Easy Underarm Hold:


The rod's bat length is specifically designed to make it easier to hold securely under the arm, providing enhanced stability and comfort during fishing, especially when handling large catches or using powerful techniques

■ Equipped with Front Grip for Power Fights on All Models:


All models come with a front grip designed for power fights, offering added control and leverage during intense battles with large fish, ensuring a comfortable and secure grip when extra strength is needed

■ Around the Reel Seat:


The area around the reel seat is carefully designed for both functionality and aesthetics. It offers a secure and ergonomic fit, ensuring comfort and control during prolonged fishing sessions. The design also seamlessly integrates with the rod's overall sleek appearance, providing a refined and practical layout around the reel seat

■ 73MH-220: Bend Performance with a 40 Weight Load:


The 73MH-220 model demonstrates an optimal bending curve when loaded with a 40号 (150g) weight, providing a well-balanced combination of power and flexibility. This makes it ideal for handling larger fish while maintaining smooth control and responsive action during heavy-load situations

■ 73MH-220: Bend Performance with an 80 Weight Load:


With an 80号 (300g) weight load, the 73MH-220 displays a deep, powerful bend that emphasizes the rod's robust backbone and elasticity. This allows it to effectively handle very heavy loads while maintaining smooth, controlled action, making it ideal for battling large, powerful fish in challenging conditions

■ 73MH-220: Bend Performance with an 80 Weight Load


When the 73MH-220 is loaded with an 80号 (300g) weight, it shows a deep, powerful bend that emphasizes the rod's strength and flexibility. This design provides optimal performance, maintaining a smooth and controlled action even when handling very heavy loads, making it suitable for targeting large fish in challenging conditions. The rod offers exceptional stability and power during intense fights.

Advantages of General-Purpose Rods Compared to Specialized Rods:
General-purpose rods are designed to handle a variety of situations with versatility, aiming to deliver a solid performance (around 80 points) across a range of target species. They are ideal for anglers who fish year-round, enjoy a variety of fishing styles, and appreciate fishing through different seasons without being tied to a specific technique. They are also a great choice for those who might not be fully satisfied with specialized rods and want to experience a more adaptable option.

Tuning Comparison:
Building on the Kyokuei Concept Game, each general-purpose rod enhances power in the butt section to improve handling and stability during fights. This design offers greater versatility, enabling better performance across different fishing conditions, while ensuring comfort and control even when targeting larger fish.
