Description

HIROISM BOUNCE is Smith's power-game model in the HIROism bass rod series, developed by Hiro Naitoh and field-tested in Florida. It is built for pitching (rubber jig & worm), diving crankbaits and frogs.

It is the series' longest rod, engineered for fatigue-free, sharp handling through a full session. All HIROism models are baitcasting; PDF1 is a 1-piece build and PDF2 is a 2-piece build. Guides are Fuji stainless-frame SiC-S across the blank (titanium-frame SiC on the top guide only), set in a spiral guide layout that rotates roughly 30° per guide from the butt up to a 180°-opposed tip and second guide, reducing line-to-blank contact under heavy pressure and keeping lure flight straight on overhead and side casts. The grip is high-grade cork with a Fuji PMTS (Palming Micro Trigger Seat) reel seat; the PDF2's 2-piece ferrule is an over-ferrule matched to feel like the 1-piece, with a white marking line for spiral-guide alignment. Released May 2024.

This listing is the HIM-B66H-PDF2: 6'6", 127g, rated for 1/4-1 1/4oz lures and 12-25lb line, Heavy power / Fast action, 255mm rear grip, 102.5cm packed length (2pcs), 40t graphite blank, 2.1mm tip diameter. Suited to rubber jigs, worm (Texas rig), diving crankbaits and frogs.

Information

The blank

A spiral guide layout rotating roughly 30 degrees per guide up to a 180-degree-opposed tip reduces line-to-blank contact under heavy pressure, giving a strong, direct lift with a fatigue-free feel through a full session of power fishing.

What it's built for

The longest, power-game model in the HIROism line, developed by Hiro Naitoh and field-tested in Florida for pitching rubber jigs and worms, diving crankbaits and frogs through heavy cover.

How it fishes

Heavy power and Fast action give the backbone to drive hooks home and pull big bass clear of cover, while the spiral guide setup keeps lure flight straight on overhead and side casts.

The setup it likes

Pairs with a 6.5:1-7:1 baitcasting reel on 15-20lb fluorocarbon or 40-50lb braid, matched to jigs and Texas-rigged worms in heavy cover.
