Description

Smith GRAVITATION GRVS-VAS64M is a spinning, full-solid tairaba (tai-jig) rod from Smith's GRAVITATION series, built around the "Vertical Angle" concept for fast-current tai-rubber fishing under captain Makoto Kato's GROOVE concept.

Smith's official page describes it as using the spinning reel's no-thumbing pure free-fall to give a highly efficient approach to low-activity madai (red seabream), holding the rod tip in line with the tairaba through both fall and retrieve to trigger reaction bites.

Spec: 6'4", 140g, PE 0.6–1 line, tairaba weight to 250g (cast weight to 100g), Medium power / Moderate action, 24t graphite full-solid blank, 440mm grip, 152cm pack length.

Information

The blank

A full-solid 24t graphite blank built around the 'Vertical Angle' concept holds the tairaba in line with the rod tip through both fall and retrieve, giving a moderate, absorbing load that keeps a low-activity fish committed.

What it's built for

Built for fast-current tai-rubber fishing under Makoto Kato's GROOVE concept, using the spinning reel's no-thumbing pure free-fall for a highly efficient approach to low-activity madai.

How it fishes

Holding the tip in line with the tairaba through the fall and the retrieve helps trigger reaction bites from red seabream that would otherwise ignore a lure worked off-angle.

The setup it likes

Pairs with a spinning tairaba reel around 200-300g, PE0.6-1 line and a 4-6lb fluorocarbon leader.
