A new series utilizing the MPG (Magnum Power Glass), the pinnacle of blank materials from the renowned Fune (boat) fishing brand alphatackle. This series is designed specifically for slow-pitch jerk with an unprecedented bending curve that knows no limits. The GCULDP Blank System, a unique manufacturing process, is employed. Applying high pressure during the formation process minimizes resin content. Layers of sheets are meticulously wrapped multiple times on the core of elastic carbon, which is the central component. This results in an unparalleled multi-layer structure, approximately three to four times that of conventional rods using MPG. This rod not only harnesses the power that has triumphed in numerous battles but also possesses the recovery force after intense bending and sharpness during jig manipulation, creating a rod that stands out in both strength and precision.

FEATURES

alphatackle MPG (Magnum Power Glass)
A super fiber that involves more components of silica (SiO²) and alumina (Al²O³) than conventional E-glass, taking all performance to a higher level. This unique material is crafted into tubular (hollow) structures, combining the flexibility and durability unique to glass with the lightweight and resilience that conventional glass solid rods couldn’t achieve.
-
GCULDP BLANK SYSTEM
The GCULDP (Graphite Core Ultra-Layered high-Density Pressure manufacturing) blank system employs an unprecedented multi-layered structure, approximately 3 to 4 times more than conventional MPG rods, achieved by applying high pressure during the forming process to minimize resin content. Layers of sheets are meticulously wound over the core of medium-elasticity carbon core, creating a structure with exceptional density.
-
Fuji SiC RING GUIDE
Featuring Fuji’s SiC rings with an astonishingly low friction resistance, achieving a line lifespan of more than 20 times that of the improved hard rings. The SiC ring guides, used from tip to butt section throughout, boast an overwhelming performance with a thermal conductivity 5.7 times that of the hard rings guides. (all guides are equipped with SiC ring)
-
MAX DRAG
Numbers at the end, such as 61[3] or 61[5], originally represent the power of the rod. However, in the case of this rod, those numbers are not indicative of its power but serve merely as a notation to visualize the recommended jig weight. Instead, each model is denoted with ‘DM●●’ at the end of the model name (abbreviated for Drag Max). This allows users to recognize the power of each rod through separate numerical values. For example, C613 = Drag Max 10kg / C615 = Drag Max 15kg, showcasing exceptionally high numerical settings, which would be practically unattainable for carbon tubular-type rods in the same class available in the market.
-
WRAP PAINTING
The wrap painting, which is also utilized in some flagship models of alphatackle. While respecting the sentiments of predecessors towards MPG, the design is crafted to evoke its charm instantly. The main colors, gold (C613-DM10) representing yellowfin tuna and silver (C615-DM15) representing bluefin tuna, each embody a distinct imagery.

C613-DM10
FLEXIBLE AND POWERFUL ROD FOR SLOW PITCH JERK
・The 613, labeled with “3” as the power class, encapsulates a torque-filled power more than double what anglers would typically imagine.
・During fights, the rod's “astonishing resilience” kicks in after it's fully bent, enabling anglers to control big fish with ease.
・The lively and surefooted lifting performance, resembling a living creature in motion, is a performance uniquely obtained through the use of MPG material.
・For #8 to #10 guides, M-type KW guides with higher-than-usual guide foot are equipped and this unconventional yet logically sound guide setting allows for smooth line drop and comfortable line retrieval.
