The spinning rod Dark Player Vertical Spin from Sakura is a cane dedicated to vertical fishing for pike-perch and perch. Designed with premium materials and meticulous attention to detail, this cane single-piece with removable heel offers the perfect balance between sensitivity, power, and maneuverability for practicing vertical fishing from a boat or a float tube.
At the heart of the Vertical Spin is a Torayca High Performance Graphite Fibers carbon blank combining two grades of exceptional fibers: IM30T and HM40T. This double-layer construction represents the pinnacle of composite materials technology applied to fishing rods. This IM30T/HM40T combination creates an ultra-responsive blank that never sacrifices power for sensitivity, or vice versa. The result is a cane light, responsive and terribly effective for demanding vertical fishing.
The single-piece with removable heel concept perfectly illustrates the design intelligence of Vertical Spin. This system offers the advantages of a cane single-piece (optimal continuous action, no dead zone at the handle, maximum sensitivity) while greatlyfacilitating transport and storage.
The heel disassembles and reassembles in a few seconds, reducing significantly the clutter during transport to your fishing spots. Once assembled, the cane retrievs all the characteristics of a full single-piece, without compromising performance.
The ergonomic reel seat benefits from a glossy black finish which is most beautiful, combining aesthetics and functionality. Its anatomical shape naturally fits the palm of the hand, improving comfort of fishing vertically where the cane is constantly held in hand. This ergonomic design also improves the precision of animations, with each movement of the wrist faithfully translating into lure action. The positioning and shape of the reel seat have been designed to optimize the overall balance of the cane-reel set, essential criteria for comfort in vertical fishing.
The Fuji Alconite KR-Tangle Free rings equipping this cane guarantee optimal performance in all situations. The Alconite inserts (aluminum oxide) provide exceptional hardness and an ultra-smooth surface that preserves your braid from micro-abrasions during casting and recovery. Their lightness contributes to reducing the overall weight of the cane without sacrificing strength. These rings effectively dissipate heat generated by friction during fights with large fish.
The KR-Tangle Free (anti-tangle) concept refers to the specific configuration of the Fuji rings, with their characteristic triangular frame that minimizes line tangle risks during sharp vertical drop animations or casts. This optimized geometry also allows for better stress distribution on the blank, increasing the durability and performance of the whole.
The high-density EVA handles guarantee optimal handling in all circumstances. You will also benefit from a lure clip wire loop (wire loop) which is a practical but essential detail for keeping your lure in place during your movements.
