The Shimano SABER MASTER TT is a high-performance rod series meticulously designed for serious hairtail (tachi-uo) anglers who rely on tenya and tenbin rigs for maximum control and bite detection. In coastal waters like Tokyo Bay, where hairtail fishing demands subtle presentation and precise rod work, the SABER MASTER TT series delivers the delicate sensitivity and powerful butt strength that experienced anglers expect.
At its core, each model uses Shimano’s advanced high-tensile carbon blank construction, optimizing balance and lightness while enhancing torsional rigidity for crisp feedback and minimal blank twist. The signature 7:3 or 8:2 action design gives you a highly responsive tip that detects even the faintest nibble yet transitions smoothly to a firm backbone that absorbs runs and prevents hooks from tearing free.
The SABER MASTER TT’s refined bending curve means you can adapt to hairtail conditions all year round, whether the fish are aggressive or shy. Techniques like long stays, micro slow electric retrieves, stop-and-go, lift-and-fall, and jerk-and-stay can all be performed with pinpoint control and minimal fatigue, thanks to the rod’s lightweight feel and ergonomic grip.
Every rod in the series is outfitted with corrosion-resistant guides to withstand harsh saltwater environments, plus Shimano’s signature carbon monocoque handle for better vibration transmission and direct bite feel. For tenbin fishing, the rods maintain line tension across various depths, making them effective in both shallow and deep areas where hairtail frequently change their swimming layers.
Available in a range of lengths and power ratings, the SABER MASTER TT is equally suitable for day or night fishing, and it covers scenarios from calm waters with light sinkers to deeper spots with heavier rigs. If you’re looking for a specialized rod that elevates your hairtail technique and gives you the confidence to handle tricky bites and powerful runs, the SABER MASTER TT is the perfect choice to make every hook-up count.
