Launcher – an extreme casting rod! This is the most powerful blank in the range, designed to cast heavy soft plastics, hard lures and metals. If you’re fishing in extreme conditions or need that extra power to cover more water, the Launcher is just the tool for the job.

We’ve named each Tempest rod based on the type of fishing it’s suited for. Instead of aimless length and weight descriptions, we’ve given you an idea of what each rod is designed to do.

All rods are made from a high-volume 40-ton Japanese carbon, this helps keep the blanks light but ultra-strong and crisp. It aids their recovery, making these the most accurate, distance casting tools we’ve ever produced at this price. We’ve further strengthened the blanks by using X-Tec Mesh, this unique wrap protects the integrity of the blank, further enhancing its performance and durability.

A wise man once said, “to add speed, add lightness” — to that end, we’ve 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. We also think this minimalistic style looks cool, too!

All rods are built using Fuji Guides and Fuji Reel Seats.
