HTO Tempest Precision—fitted with a tubular tip, this rod provides the ultimate in lure control and increased feel as to what’s happening on the business end. The tubular tip also helps increase its casting accuracy. The perfect rod for ultralight lure fishing for perch in the canal or harbours and structures, hunting gobies and other minis. This rod can fish just about anything from jig heads to small hard lures to metals. HTO named each Tempest rod based on the type of fishing it’s suited for. Instead of aimless length and weight descriptions, they’ve given you an idea of what each rod is designed to do. HTO Tempest Precision is made from a high-volume 40-ton Japanese carbon, this helps keep the blanks light but ultra-strong and crisp. It aids the recovery, making these the most accurate, distance casting tools HTO ever produced at this price. They’ve further strengthened the blanks by using X-Tec Mesh, this unique wrap protects the integrity of the blank, further enhancing HTO Tempest Precision performance and durability. A wise man once said, “to add speed, add lightness” — to that end, HTO looked at each rod and removed several whippings to reduce their weight, many rods have unnecessary whippings around the reel seats and butt caps. These are merely cosmetic, but add weight. HTO also think this minimalistic style looks cool, too! All rods are built using Fuji Guides and Fuji Reel Seats.
