Description

Fishman BC5 9.6MH (B.C.5, B.C.5) is a 5-piece long-cast shore rod built for reaching remote, foot- or bicycle-access-only spots. It targets lanker seabass, yellowtail (hiramasa/buri), rockfish (nezakana) and striped bass. Each of the five sections is tuned for a distinct role: the butt section adds strength against unexpected large fish, the next handles casting and fighting, the third delivers lure action and hookset power, and the tip section prioritises sensitivity via single-foot guides. An extended grip section doubles as a protective sleeve when the rod is broken down for transport.

Construction: 4-axis carbon, K-guides in titanium and stainless (titanium at the tip).

Information

The blank

Each of the five sections has a distinct job: the butt adds strength against an unexpected big fish, the next section handles casting and fighting, the third drives lure action and hookset power, and the tip prioritises sensitivity through single-foot guides.

What it's built for

Built for reaching remote spots accessible only on foot or by bicycle, targeting large seabass, yellowtail-class fish, rockfish and striped bass from open shoreline where long casts matter. This suits a tide-swept point or a rocky headland where gulls are working bait.

How it fishes

Suited to long-range plug and jig casting worked with a steady or twitched retrieve depending on species, with the extended grip section doubling as a protective sleeve for transport when broken down.

The setup it likes

Pair with a 4000-5000 spinning reel, PE1-4 line and a heavy fluorocarbon leader. Size the leader up when fishing rougher ground for yellowtail-class fish or rockfish. A 5000-size reel with a good drag helps control a big yellowtail-class fish on long line.
