Specially developed for boat fishing for European cephalopods, the Tenryu Ikagami TR 68 MH showcases all Japanese expertise applied to our conditions. Designed to target squid and cuttlefish that are less aggressive than their Japanese counterparts, it offers a softer and more progressive action, perfectly suited to subtle and controlled animations. Its remarkable resonance transmits the slightest take, while retaining sufficient power reserve for effective hook-sets at great depth.
Balanced and lively, the TR 68 MH excels in animating Egi Type Run sizes 3.0 to 3.5 (up to 45 g), and proves deadly in vertical Tataki fishing with Ika Metal lures (up to 120 g). A true extension of the arm, it allows fine reading of takes and total line control, even in strong currents. Finally, its fairly rounded action will help reduce squid drop-offs during the retrieve.
