Choose between two types of blanks: carbon or glass.

Carbon Model for Heavy Sinking

For short, 4-piece pack rods that excel in headwaters and mountain streams, there are two types of blanks available for both spinning and baitcasting. For anglers seeking a more crisp swinging sensation, the carbon blanks 'S47UL-4' and 'B47UL-4' are recommended. These feature a tip-action design with moderate stiffness, ideal for handling heavy sinking minnows with efficient water-cutting abilities, allowing direct manipulation. They are sensitive to changes in water flow, making it easy to feel through the rod, and the tip recovers quickly during twitches, ensuring a stress-free experience in upstream casting. Although made of carbon, low-modulus carbon material is used to provide sufficient flexibility during casting. The rods are not too stiff, making it easy to pinpoint the release point and are capable of long casts leveraging the rebound strength of carbon.

Glass Model Suitable for Lightweight Minnows

For anglers who include lighter lures in their rotation along with heavy sinking ones, the glass composite 'S48UL-G/4' and 'B48UL-G/4' are recommended. The supple tip-action makes it easy to cast even with floating lures and allows delicate manipulation of high-response lightweight minnows. These rods excel at drifting sinking minnows in the current, fluttering them enticingly while controlling the movement with line slack. Noteworthy is their ability to flex the tip with compact wrist-centered motions. This feature makes them suitable for casting in tight spaces and not just in headwaters but also in bushy tributaries where trick casts are essential, despite being 4-piece pack rods.
