Megabass Great Hunting Huntsman GHBF 511 4L Tanabira Special, a technical casting rod for trout
A rod designed for powerful rivers
The Megabass Great Hunting Huntsman GHBF 511 4L Tanabira Special is a rod developed by Yuki Ito for fishing amago, also known as tanabira, in the Japanese currents of Kiso and Shinshu. Its behavior makes it perfectly suited to French trout river fishing, particularly in fast, demanding or technical sections.
It is aimed at anglers looking for a short, precise and highly responsive casting rod to attack tight holding spots with efficiency.
A tool dedicated to twitching and reaction fishing
This Tanabira Special was designed for fast and repeated animations, particularly continuous high-speed twitching. Its tip-heavy balance facilitates lure control and allows imparting aggressive animations to sinking minnows.
It proves particularly effective with lures such as the Great Hunting 65, when triggering reflex strikes in current lanes, fast edges or deep hideouts.
Sensitivity, precision and power in hand
Crafted by MPW, Megabass Performance Works, this rod benefits from a high-end design incorporating ultra-high-density ivory rosewood. This finish provides excellent information transmission to the hand, for instant strike detection and precise contact with the lure.
Its powerful blank offers a wide range of use, with the reserve needed to set the hook quickly and extract powerful fish from strong currents. Its 4-piece format facilitates transport, without sacrificing precision or control in fishing action.
