METALLIA AKAMUTSU Rod Series
The METALLIA AKAMUTSU series by Daiwa is a premium deep sea technical rod designed specifically for modern Japanese blackthroat seaperch fishing, delivering exceptional visual sensitivity, precise zero tension control, and powerful offshore fighting performance.
Built around Daiwa’s highly flexible Metal Top technology, the rod tip stabilizes the rig naturally even in rolling offshore conditions while transmitting delicate bite signals and subtle bottom pressure changes with extraordinary clarity.
Compared with conventional deep water rods, the softer and more responsive metal tip allows anglers to clearly distinguish true akamutsu bites from unwanted bycatch reactions, improving hook timing and overall efficiency.
The rod is specially tuned for modern zero tension fishing techniques, maintaining stable rig positioning near the seabed while allowing immediate hook setting response without delay.
Equipped with Daiwa’s AGS carbon guide system, the series dramatically improves vibration transmission and reduces front section weight, creating exceptional hand sensitivity and lightweight operability during extended offshore sessions.
The X45 carbon reinforcement structure suppresses blank twisting during hook setting, fighting pressure, and electric reel operation, increasing stability, power transfer, and operational precision.
Its V-JOINT construction produces a smooth one piece like bending curve with excellent recovery speed and lifting power, helping anglers maintain control against large deep water fish.
The ZERO SEAT center grip reel seat is optimized for electric reel compatibility and heavy load comfort, reducing stress on the hands during high pressure offshore fishing.
The M-205 model is a sensitive all round specification suited for sinkers around 100 to 150 size and lighter tactical approaches, while the MH-205 delivers stronger lifting power for deeper water and aggressive heavy sinker applications.
Combining elite sensitivity, advanced zero tension control, and reliable deep sea power, the METALLIA AKAMUTSU series represents Daiwa’s refined technical approach to modern Japanese akamutsu fishing.
