Offshore Casting Game Rods Designed for Greater Comfort and Control
Specialized offshore casting rods engineered to deliver a more refined game that relies not only on brute power, but also on casting comfort, control, and reduced angler fatigue.
These models are designed to improve casting stability, long-distance performance, and ease of use in offshore casting situations. In addition to excellent lure control, the blanks are engineered to bend deeply before smoothly recovering with strong rebound power. Combined with assist grips that help during prolonged fights with large fish, these rods fully support long hours of offshore casting.

Designed for large diving pencils over 180mm, poppers, and sinking pencils
A heavy-power model developed for targeting large Hiramasa, Yellowfin Tuna, medium-sized Bluefin Tuna, and GT using large diving pencils over 180mm, heavyweight sinking plugs, and poppers.
Although positioned as the most powerful rod in the series, capable of lifting fish quickly during fights, it is also designed to reduce physical strain on the angler.
Blank Construction
Each model uses a composite blank structure combining low- and medium-modulus graphite with 1K woven graphite for an optimal balance of strength, resilience, and fighting performance.
Front Assist Grip
(Equipped on S86M, S86MH, and S86XH)
During prolonged fights, an angler’s grip strength naturally decreases over time. To help reduce fatigue and improve fighting control, these models feature an additional assist grip positioned in front of the foregrip.
This allows anglers to either grip the slimmer front section directly on the blank side or utilize the stepped transition between the assist grip and foregrip for extra support, helping maintain control even when grip strength weakens.
