We offer 2 complete Kits, in different finish colors, to mount this Rodbuilders’ Republic Tuna Express R710 blank

.

This blank from a collaboration between Rodhouse and Rainshadow is unlike any other. The original brief was to offer tuna anglers a soft-tipped blank that would whip small lures while still being capable of reeling in tuna up to 80kg. Mike Thorson, the designer in charge of the project, succeeded in developing a very solid blank, unique in its kind. When tuna are focused on small prey, it’s a formidable weapon! The ideal “target fish” is between 20 and 60kg.

The Kit consists of a Fuji PVC gimbal, a Fuji DPS20 reel seat, EVA grips, and Fuji Sic rings in Shiny gray Sic finish. The first “MN 40” Guide is to be mounted upside down.

Spacing chart : 14 – 15 – 17 – 20 – 24.5 – 28.5

You can cut the grips to any length you like, but the spacing chart is adapted for a 48cm reel foot so as to have 73cm between the reel foot and the stripper.

Preferably used with PE 6 or 8 braid
