It's a solid hexagonal rod made from madake bamboo fiber with a straightforward, mathematically calculated tapered design.
I have been fishing with shooting heads for many years, and this bamboo rod, from #7 onwards, is designed to be used with shooting heads.
What are the characteristics of this rod?
I use madake bamboo, which is easily available in Japan.
It is lighter, more resilient, and stronger than Tonkin cane.
It has also been used for tea ceremony utensils, baskets, bows, and more.
I make the most of the characteristics of this bamboo and compensate for its weak points with a tapered design, and I continue to produce our products through trial and error.I have now been producing these products for 18 years.
