Product benefits

The Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 472 S-UL is an ultra-light trout spinning rod specially developed for fishing in small streams and crowded waterways. Its fine action allows casting tiny lures with precision while maintaining maximum control over presentation and drift. Ideal for targeting trout positioned under branches, along undercut banks or in shallow runs, it offers direct feel of the lure's swim and the slightest bite. Its progressive power reserve secures the fight, even on a wary fish hooked at short range. Designed for trout fishing in tight streams, this ultra-light rod combines comfort, precision and stealth on every cast.

Technical specifications

The RZS 472 S-UL is primarily designed to make the most of small minnows of 3 to 5 cm, weighing around 1 to 3 g. Its specific action allows subtle, repeated twitches while maintaining excellent line stability, even at short range.

This ultra-light trout rod is optimized for underhand casts, roll casts and small flips to place the lure precisely in the most promising water seams. The whole is designed to provide excellent directional accuracy, good hook-setting responsiveness and precise control of slow or lively presentations.

Advantages and key features

This stream trout rod stands out for its ability to work perfectly with very light lures where many rods lose precision or sensitivity. It allows constant contact with the minnow, even in fast seams, improving presentation quality and hook-up rate. Its progressive flex protects fine leaders often used in trout fishing while offering a quick response on the bite. Fishing comfort is enhanced by great maneuverability, especially appreciated during sessions with repeated casts into tight spots. In short, the Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 472 S-UL provides an excellent compromise between stealth, precision and fishing pleasure.

Usage tips

To get the most out of this rod, favor minnows of 3 to 5 cm with a balanced center of gravity, sinking or floating, in a weight range of 1 to 3 g. Use roll or sidearm casts to slip the lure under branches and place it close to obstacles where the best trout often hold. Animate your minnow with short, sharp twitches, punctuated by pauses, to fully exploit the rod's lively action and trigger reflex strikes. Use discreet leaders suited to water clarity and keep the rod low to better control the line in currents. By working upstream and refining your approach, this ultra-light spinning rod for trout will become a major asset on technical stretches.

FAQ

Question 1 : Is this rod only suitable for minnows or can other light lures be used?

Answer: The Tenryu Rayz Spectra RZS 472 S-UL was primarily designed for animating small minnows of 3 to 5 cm (1 to 3 g), but it can also handle other small hardbaits of comparable weight, provided you stick to a fine, precise fishing approach in small waterways.
