Designed for the Japanese topwater market, the Tica Hoodlum Star 270S-300 rod will be perfect casting poppers and stick baits to marauding kingfish in local waters.
The 2.7m (9′) 2 piece blank is built light and strong to ease the pain of all day casting sessions, and has
the power to subdue our bigger size NZ kingfish.
The heavy walled slimline blank joins inside the handle to maintain the perfect action of the rod and is suitable for casting lures in the 200g to 300g weight range with line rating from PE8 to PE10.
The rod is finished with quality Fuji tangle free K series guides, graphite reel seat and ergonomically shaped slimline EVA foam grips.
