SMITH MULTIYOUYOU TRM-69M/5 (or D-CONTACT SPECIAL) — 6'9"

Heavy Sinking Minnow Twitching Specialist for Large Native Trout

Designed specifically for targeting large native trout—such as Cherry Salmon (Sakuramasu), Satsukimasu, and trophy river trout—this 6'9" short-length rod excels in mainstem rivers, lakes, and wading applications where active rod manipulation is essential. It is optimized for aggressive twitching tactics using heavy sinking minnows (such as the Smith D-Series).

Built on an advanced multi-modulus composite blank incorporating 24t, 30t, and 40t carbon graphites coupled with high-strength Boron and Woven Graphite, it delivers instantaneous responsiveness with zero time lag. Equipped with ultra-compact Fuji Titanium Frame SiC K-Guides, line flutter and guide-weight inertia are completely eliminated, transferring every twitch directly to the lure while enhancing casting distance, sensitivity, and wind resistance.

KEY DESIGN FEATURES

• Multi-Modulus Composite + Boron Blank

  Fuses 24t, 30t, and 40t graphite layers with Boron and Woven Graphite, achieving high structural rigidity, extreme sensitivity, and instant blank recovery.

• Ultra-Compact Fuji Titanium SiC K-Guide System

  Positions line extremely close to the blank to maximize casting and twitching sensitivity, eliminate tip-heaviness, and reduce wind resistance on line loops during power casts.

• Heavy Sinking Minnow Twitching Optimization

  Engineered for zero-lag transmission, allowing anglers to instantaneously dart and pulse heavy sinking minnows like the D-Contact series with precision.
