OFFSHORE STICK GTK -SMITH LTD

GTK-66SJ (Surface Jerking)
Target Fish : Dolphin fish, migratory fish
Smith’s Recommendation Lures : Saruna SR, L-Dourado, Zipsea Pen& Pop, etc.
Tip : Cast our Vimetal Spin with its tail hook changed to 2x–3x strong wire, and wind it by fast and steady retrieve. This works great for bonito and nibbler.
Optimal for jerking with lipless minnow, splasher, popper, etc. A bit slower moderate fast taper than 56ST, so that plugs make action even if only steady retrieve.

GTK-70JP (Jerk & Popping) NEW
Target Fish : Big dolphin fish, small and medium sized migratory fish
Smith’s Recommendation Lures : Marvelous Runboh Jr. Metal Bait, Metal Jack, et
A model designed for hard jerking and popping of the pencil type plug or ideal for cast and jerking of metal jigs. Designed for lure around to the 130g weight.

GTK-73SJ (Surface Jerking)
Target fish : Small and medium sized migratory fish (Boiling Amberjack, Yellowtail,
Nibbler), especially under boiling conditions.
A rod with a bit longer soft tip section. The tip bends easily even if a lure weight is less than 50g, and Kevlar’s high repulsive force makes long casting possible. Recently, Nibbler, Amberjack, and Yellow tail are attracting attention as the target fish in boiling conditions. They go underwater when a boat approaches, and also when a metal jig cast from a distance lands on the water. Strangely enough, they do not go underwater when plugs are cast. This is why a rod with long casting performance even for plugs is required.

GTK-74PG (Powerful Game)
Target Fish : Big dolphin fish, small and medium sized migratory fish
Smith’s Recommendation Lures : Marvelous Runboh Jr. Metal Bait, Metal Jack, etc.
A long caster with enormous potentialities, which can full-cast not only plug/metal jigs but also heavy lures. Its average casting performance is well over 90m even if a lure weight is about 80g. Because of its fast-taper design which is excellent in remote manipulation from a long distance, you can jerk, dive, and pop plugs at will.
