Description
The Foojin'RS NIGHTBIRD EXV (フージンRS ナイトバード EXV) is the compact multi-piece version of APIA's Foojin'RS NIGHTBIRD seabass rod, built for finesse work in enclosed bay harbours and small-to-medium rivers where lightness matters for run-and-gun access by bike, train or on a trip. It is tuned for bachi (spawning worm) and haku (juvenile baitfish) patterns and other light-lure games, with a tip section sensitive enough to hold short bites, and it handles small hooks safely, bending through the fight rather than horsing fish in.
Length 9'0" (2.743m), lure weight 3-28g, PE line #0.6-1.2, Fast action, 132g, 5-piece NANO JOINT construction, 64.0cm closed length, FUJI stainless-frame SiC-S guides. Built on TORAYCA M40X, T1100G and M40J carbon with NANOALLOY technology and APIA's X-FORCE100 construction. Target species: seabass (シーバス).

FAQ
What does the power rating (UL, L, M, MH) actually mean?
JDM power letters often run lighter than the same letter on a US or Australian blank. The honest spec is the lure-weight range in grams on each listing — match that to what you throw, and use the letter as a tiebreaker.
How do I read Japanese rod lengths?
Japanese lengths are written in feet and inches as a decimal: 6.6 reads as 6 feet 6 inches, not six-point-six feet.
One-piece or multi-piece for travel?
Two-piece and telescopic travel rods pack shorter and ship more easily. One-piece blanks feel cleaner, but long parcels can attract courier length surcharges and some carriers route them more slowly.
What warranty or service do imported rods have?
There is no local service centre for a JDM rod. Repairs go back to Japan, usually with a fee and a multi-week turnaround — we state that plainly so you can weigh it before you buy.
Will a one-piece rod cost more to ship?
It can. Long parcels attract courier length surcharges on some routes and can move through fewer carriers. Any shipping cost shows at checkout before you pay — no surprises after the order.
