TOP RANGE Range Stick TaiMetal 693BTI

3-Piece Travel Model for Red Sea Bream Jigging

Inheriting the high-performance DNA of TOP RANGE's dedicated Red Sea Bream (Madai) jigging series, the 693Bti delivers exceptional straight-retrieve stability in a highly portable 3-piece travel format. Engineered to present jigs smoothly on a steady reel-in, it encourages natural bites without giving wary trophy sea bream any sense of unnatural resistance. The moment a strike registers, its responsive backbone drives hooks firmly into the tough jaws of large sea bream, perfectly balancing lure presentation with positive hook-setting power.

KEY DESIGN FEATURES

• 1-Piece Performance in a 3-Piece Packable Design

  Collapsing to a compact 80cm closed length, this travel rod is easy to store in vehicles, carry onto flights, or keep as a backup. Despite its multi-piece structure, it bends naturally and responds like a 1-piece rod—maintaining absolute jig stability and crisp hook-setting response.

• Versatile Straight-Retrieve & Jerking Compatibility

  Optimized for steady, straight-retrieve ("Tadamaki") presentations with 25–80g jigs to maintain an alluring swimming posture. When changing tactics to adapt to deep water or heavy currents, the blank handles jerking actions with jigs weighing up to MAX 150g.

• Tactical Baitcasting Setup

  At 6.9ft, the length provides superior maneuverability on the boat. The baitcasting configuration delivers direct line feel and instant clutch engagement for precise depth control and aggressive hooksets.
