HTO Tempest Versatile Rod

Description

The HTO Tempest Versatile is a high-performance rod built to serve as a single-rod solution for the light game and LRF angler who fishes a wide variety of lure types. As its name suggests, it is engineered to handle almost every light game tactic, working jig heads and soft plastics with exceptional feel, metals and spinners, and pencil lures and topwater hard baits. The rod is built on a premium, lightweight blank made from high-volume 40-ton Japanese carbon. This material keeps the rod light and ultra-strong while giving it a crisp recovery speed for highly accurate, long-distance casting. The blank is further reinforced with an X-Tec Mesh wrap, which protects its integrity and significantly enhances durability and overall performance. A solid tip construction provides superior bite detection, even with the most cautious fish, making the rod ideal for shy-biting species, and it is perfectly balanced with the powerful lower section. The Tempest Versatile suits light tackle bass and wrasse fishing in saltwater, as well as perch and zander in freshwater. Unlike many rods in its class, it is fitted with top-of-the-range hardware, including Fuji Guides and a Fuji Reel Seat, for reliability and longevity. - Model Name: HTO Tempest Versatile - Length: 7' 4" (approx. 2.23m) - Casting Weight: Max 14g - Action: Fast (with a sensitive tip) - Tip Type: Solid Tip - Line Rating (PE): PE #0.2 ~ #0.6 - Blank Material: High-Volume 40-Ton Japanese Carbon - Blank Reinforcement: X-Tec Mesh - Sections: 2 - Guides: Fuji Guides - Reel Seat: Fuji Reel Seat
