Megabass OROCHI F3 1/2-70XTS Spinning Rod

Product Advantages

The Megabass OROCHI F3 1/2-70XTS rod is built around the exclusive X10 organic fiber technology, incorporating naturally sourced materials such as cellulose microfibrils. This next-generation blank provides exceptional vibration damping and very effective shock absorption, delivering more precise, comfortable and controlled fishing. Compared with conventional fiberglass, this material offers superior strength while remaining significantly lighter.

With its particularly soft action, this rod excels in all finesse techniques near the bottom, where sensitivity and reading the bottom are decisive. It lets you detect the slightest subtle bites and accurately follow your lure’s behavior, whether using soft plastics, small crankbaits or metal blade lures. Technical fishing for perch, zander, largemouth bass and sea bass becomes more intuitive and effective.

Developed by the Project X10 team, this rod follows a sustainable manufacturing approach. The use of natural materials helps reduce CO2 emissions during production while offering one of the most functional composites developed by ITO Engineering. You therefore get a high-end, high-performance tool designed with greater environmental consideration.

Technical Specifications

• Blank from the X10 organic fiber series incorporating naturally sourced materials for optimized damping.
• Soft, progressive action ideal for feeling the bottom, tracking lure work and keeping the fish securely hooked.
• Design tailored for finesse techniques near the bottom and precise presentations for predators.
• Versatile use with soft plastics, small crankbaits and metal blade lures.
• Composite material lighter and stronger than fiberglass, offering better comfort over long sessions.
• Manufacturing process focused on durability and carbon footprint reduction thanks to the addition of natural fibers.

Benefits and Key Strengths

The primary benefit of this rod lies in its exceptional sensitivity. The X10 blank filters unwanted vibrations while clearly transmitting bites and changes in bottom texture. You better sense structure, breaks and contact with fish, resulting in more precise hooksets and an improved success rate.

Its soft action also provides great comfort during the fight. The rod works progressively, absorbs head shakes and reduces unhooks, especially on wary or lightly hooked fish. This progressive behavior makes it particularly pleasant for repeating casts and presentations for hours without excessive fatigue.

Finally, the eco-responsible aspect of the X10 technology is a major advantage. By choosing this rod, you opt for a premium product that integrates naturally sourced fibers and a thoughtful approach to reducing CO2 emissions, without compromising performance. It’s a coherent choice for anglers seeking efficiency, pleasure of use and a more sustainable approach.

Usage Tips

The Megabass OROCHI F3 1/2-70XTS reveals its full potential in technical lure fishing, especially when working the bottom or methodically sweeping an area. Adopt slow, controlled presentations to fully benefit from the blank’s finesse and information transfer.

For bottom work, maintain constant contact with the bottom by alternating small tugs and controlled pauses. The rod’s soft action helps you feel the subtlest bites and set the hook without ripping the lure from the fish’s mouth. With small crankbaits or metal lures, favor steady retrieves punctuated by pauses or small twitches; the rod absorbs vibrations while preserving angler comfort.

After each outing, especially in saltwater, rinse the rod thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before storing. Regular maintenance of the blank and components extends its service life and preserves original performance across seasons.

FAQ

Question 1: Is this rod suitable for finesse fishing with soft plastics?

Answer: Yes, it was specifically designed for finesse bottom techniques with soft plastics, where sensitivity and reading the bottom are essential. Its X10 blank transmits very subtle bites and its soft action allows for effective hooksets without harshly tearing the fish.

Question 2: Can the Megabass OROCHI F3 1/2-70XTS be used in both freshwater and coastal environments?

Answer: It is ideal for predator fishing in freshwater and can also be suitable for light coastal fishing, for example on sea bass, if standard precautions are taken. It is recommended to rinse the rod with fresh water after any saltwater outing and dry it thoroughly to preserve performance.

Question 3: Is this rod suitable for using metal blade lures?

Answer: Yes, its vibration damping capacity makes it an excellent choice for metal blade lures such as blades. The blank filters excessive vibrations, improving comfort while allowing you to clearly feel bites and changes in lure behavior.
