Ripple Fisher Big Tuna 76 Japan 2024 Special X-mas limited edition model

RED Later day
This model is based on red, and the bright rouge colour applied to the entire blank gives a positive impression of passion and challenge. In addition to the gradation that changes to ivory black towards the tip, a matte top coat is applied.
The thread winding of the guide is woven with metallic red pin threads to create a more vivid colour.

This is a special model to decorate the upcoming “RED Later Day – A memorable day.”

The butt section is a light colour that gradually changes to a deeper colour as it moves to the tip.

Background behind the two limited edition models 

During the holiday season in December 2024, the “BIG TUNA 76 JAPAN SP -2024 Special Edition-” will be released in two designs as a limited production model for 2024.

In the Aomori Prefecture of Japan, known as the holy land of bluefin tuna, a record-breaking super large bluefin tuna weighing 290 kg was caught in a single hour and 30-minute fight using the BIG TUNA 76 JAPAN SP. This impressive catch shocked the industry, potentially breaking a record in the bluefin tuna casting game.

In the technique of casting for bluefin tuna, known for its standing fight, anglers are met with a super-large and powerful bluefin tuna weighing around 300 kg. This elusive creature possesses unmatched stamina, making it a rare encounter and a truly unique opportunity for anglers to catch such an elusive creature with their own hands.

Despite the overwhelming power of nature, the resilience and determination of anglers remains unyielding. They persist in chasing their aspirations and conquering the unknown, never backing down from a worthy opponent.

I hope that someday it will be a “RED Later Day “- a memorable day-

The bluefin tuna boat-casting game is currently at its peak, with an increasing number of super-large bluefin tuna being caught every year. Surpassing previous expectations, these record-breaking catches are expected to continue into 2025.

BIG TUNA 76 JAPAN SP will be finished in two different designs and colours from the standard model while maintaining the strength to confront super-large bluefin tuna,

Description

The 7ft6 model is made with the intent of targeting Bluefin Tuna over 200kg. This rod is able to cast and operate stickbaits of about 60g. This model is for anglers with their signs on Bluefin tuna weighing over 200kg. Similar to the 73, the 76 is capable of not only casting large lures mostly used when the targets are feeding on dolphin fish, but also allows anglers to cast lures and control the lighter (60g) sinking pencils for smaller baits. The difference between the 73 & 76 is the contrast in fighting styles. While possessing plenty of power in the butt section, you can constantly apply pressure on the fish due to the drastically reduced load on the angler by bringing the bend of the rod closer to the angler, allowing for a prolonged fight.
