TENRYU RAYZ SPECTRA RZS 772 S-MH Spinning Rod

Product highlights

The Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 772 S-MH is a large-river trout rod designed for demanding anglers seeking precision and control. Built to handle wide water channels, strong currents and distant holding spots, it easily reaches zones where the biggest fish lie. Its action is optimized for accurate long-distance casts while maintaining excellent sensitivity to read the bottom, feel the lure’s action and detect the slightest bite.

Versatile, this spinning trout rod is ideal for working minnows from 7 to 11 cm (7 to 14 g) and spoons from 7 to 20 g. This broad weight range lets you cover varying depths and current speeds, from wide streams to fast large rivers, without changing rods. The carefully balanced Tenryu Rayz Spectra reduces wrist and forearm fatigue even during long mobile river sessions.

Thanks to precise construction and a responsive blank, the RZS 772 S-MH offers an excellent compromise between reserve power to hold a trophy trout in the current and finesse to avoid hook pulls. Banner control, fish handling and casting accuracy are central to the design of this technical rod dedicated to trout lure fishing.

Advantages and key strengths

The primary strength of this Tenryu large-river trout rod lies in its ability to propel relatively compact lures long distances while keeping precise trajectory control. Whether casting a spoon in the main current or a minnow along a distant edge, the RZS 772 S-MH lets you place your lure exactly where trout actually hold.

Its weight ranges, well-suited to minnows of 7 to 11 cm and spoons of 7 to 20 g, make it a very versatile long-distance trout rod. You simply adapt the lure to water level, flow and fish activity without being limited by your gear. This ability to cover a wide spectrum of conditions with a single rod is a real advantage for the mobile angler.

The power reserve of the Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 772 S-MH secures the fight even when a trout uses the current to try to throw the hook. The rod absorbs head shakes, handles runs and keeps constant contact with the fish without opening hooks or tearing mouths. This is a major asset for those targeting trophy fish early or late in the season when water levels are higher.

Finally, its comfort, balance and responsiveness make it pleasant to use over long periods. Minnow presentations in twitching, jerking or long pulls, as well as steady spoon retrieves, remain smooth and precise, promoting technical and effective large-river trout fishing.

Usage tips

To get the most out of your Tenryu Rayz Spectra spinning trout rod, pair it with a light, smooth reel spooled with fine braid or a nylon of diameter suited to the trout size and current strength. Always match lure weight to flow speed: lighter minnows for moderate runs, heavier spoons to stay on the bottom in strong currents.

In large rivers, favor three-quarter upstream or three-quarter downstream casts to use the lure’s natural drift. With minnows, alternate slow and fast retrieves to trigger follows. With spoons, keep constant tension on the line to feel the blade’s rotation and detect bites immediately.

Always respect the recommended weight ranges (7 to 14 g for minnows, 7 to 20 g for spoons) to preserve the blank’s integrity and retain the rod’s dynamic qualities. Rinse carefully with fresh water after each outing and fully dry before storage to prolong the life of your Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 772 S-MH.
