The Meridian series is made of composite super durable and reliable E-Glass, finished according to the method of superimposed layers to get an action equivalent to that of a much higher priced rod. It is therefore a very funny rods which leave space to the fight with the fish while maintaining an exceptional reserve of power in the lower part of the blank. The series includes 6 actions to cover at their best different fishing conditions, from mackerel to bonito, from dolphin fish to his majesty the bluefin tuna.
The first 3 rods of the series 8-12lb, 12-16lb 16-20lb have been mounted with HD salt water resistant S-SiC guides. The 2 subsequent actions 20-30 and 30-50 lbs mount a TRG HD roller on top for better management of large diameter nylon. The 30-50 lbs version also features a reinforced safety reel seat. Finally the 50-80 lbs, designed for bluefin tuna fishing, uses 2 TRG HD rollers, i.e. the first and the last, tipically the points of greatest friction, and a reinforced safety reel seat. The price will surprise you.
