The Zenaq Tobizo Tuna Monster Buster

The key feature Zenaq prioritised in developing this rod was its ability to lift a 200kg fish while being bent at a deep straight up and down angle. If the rod blank is overly rigid, it becomes too challenging for anglers to endure the fierce struggle of a monster. Additionally, such a stiff rod blank wouldn’t allow casting a 100g lure. On the other hand, a rod blank that’s too flexible wouldn’t just fail to lift a 200kg monster but would also easily break under the heavy load. How do Zenaq resolve these conflicting requirements? How can they design a rod capable of casting a 100g lure far and still enable an average-sized angler to battle a 200kg monster tuna? This was the greatest challenge of Project Monster Buster.
Zenaq’s journey towards creating the perfect rod blank involved relentless cycles of design, bench testing, and field testing, and was finally completed after four seasons starting in 2019.
The result is the innovative rod blank that is the backbone of the Tobizo TC77 TUNA – Monster Buster.
