METALLIA CHUFUKABA Rod Series
The METALLIA CHUFUKABA series by Daiwa is a premium high sensitivity deep water boat rod developed specifically for modern Japanese mid-depth offshore fishing, combining lightweight operability, exceptional bite detection, and powerful lifting strength for demanding offshore conditions.
Designed for versatile chufukaba fishing techniques targeting species such as akamutsu, kuromutsu, medai, oni-kasago, kinmedai, and deep water rockfish, the rod delivers refined lure control and precise bite recognition even in deep offshore environments.
The rod features Daiwa’s advanced Metal Top made from superelastic titanium alloy, creating extraordinary hand sensitivity capable of transmitting subtle bottom contact, delicate pressure bites, and underwater changes directly to the angler.
Its lightweight blank construction allows anglers to actively work rigs and maintain precise誘い techniques while significantly reducing fatigue during long deep sea fishing sessions.
The highly responsive tip section provides excellent visual sensitivity and feeding performance, allowing fish to naturally inhale the bait while maintaining sharp hook setting response.
Daiwa’s X45 carbon reinforcement technology suppresses blank twisting during rod action, hook setting, and fighting pressure, greatly improving stability, control precision, and power transfer efficiency.
The AIR SENSOR SEAT reel seat uses carbon reinforced resin construction to achieve lightweight performance, high rigidity, and excellent vibration transmission, greatly enhancing overall operability and comfort.
The V-JOINT structure improves bending continuity at the joint section, creating a smooth one-piece-like curve while increasing recovery speed, lifting strength, and fighting stability.
Several specialized actions are available, including versatile M models for all-round deep water fishing, powerful H and HH models for stronger currents and heavier sinkers, and extra powerful HHH specifications capable of targeting large kinmedai and heavy offshore species.
The 82 MH-185 model offers excellent compatibility for yari-ika, surume-ika, rockfish, and technical offshore fishing requiring refined sensitivity and lightweight handling.
Combining elite sensitivity, lightweight deep water control, and powerful offshore fighting performance, the METALLIA CHUFUKABA series represents Daiwa’s advanced modern approach to Japanese mid-depth offshore fishing.
