Scheduled for a phased release from summer to fall 2026.
Go beyond the Corto Proto—introducing the all-new Corto Prototype.
The ever-evolving Corto Prototype has undergone a full model change. The 2026 models actively incorporate the high-strength, high-modulus Torayca® M40X material. In addition, all carbon solid-tip models are upgraded with the newly developed Torayca® T1100G Solid HS+, resulting in further refinement. The lighter, firmer tip enhances sensitivity for improved bite detection. A titanium solid-tip model—previously unavailable in the lineup—has also been added, expanding tactical possibilities even further.
Blank Material & Technology
High-strength, high-modulus Torayca® M40X is strategically incorporated throughout the blank (the 6102L-HS+ uses Torayca® T1100G), while the belly-to-butt section is reinforced with Super Quattro Graphite Cloth LV. This construction achieves a slim, lightweight, and highly sensitive blank
26GCORPS-612L-T
Defined by the lightweight feel and superior vibration sensitivity inherent to tubular construction. The highly responsive tubular tip provides sharp, precise control, while the smooth, predictable action—free from unwanted characteristics—supports a wide range of techniques, from jighead rigs to plugs, without being limited by season or location. An excellent choice for anglers who favor tubular rods.

Models 582UL-HS+, 602L-HS+, 642L-HS+, 6102L-HS+, and 7102ML-HS+ are equipped with Olympic’s original Torayca® T1100G Solid HS+ tip. Compared to conventional hard solid tips, it is lighter, firmer, and delivers superior sensitivity thanks to the use of Torayca® T1100G.
The 592UL-TS features a nickel-titanium tip connected to a carbon tubular structure using Olympic’s proprietary patented technology. By maximizing the advantages of dissimilar materials, it amplifies not only fish bites but also subtle changes in current, transmitting every detail to the angler. Born from extensive testing feedback and the latest technology, the titanium solid tip brings previously imperceptible information directly into your hands.
Models 582UL-HS+, 592UL-TS, 602L-HS+, 612L-T, 642L-HS+, and 6102L-HS+ utilize lightweight titanium-frame Torzite ring guides (AT guide for the butt guide), reducing perceived rod weight. (Tip guide features a titanium-frame SiC ring.)
The 7102ML-HS+ is fitted with lightweight titanium-frame Torzite ring guides (KL guide for the butt guide) to further reduce perceived weight. (Tip guide features a titanium-frame SiC ring.)
High-precision spigot ferrules ensure a smooth bending curve.
All models are equipped with a high-sensitivity original carbon reel seat. The 6102L-HS+ and 7102ML-HS+ use the OP-02 for a secure grip, while the other models feature the slim, compact OP-01 in a down-lock configuration.
Designed without a front grip for easier blank contact. Despite the separated grip design, the rear grip is kept to a minimal size to reduce weight and enable precise control of delicate rigs.
