The LEVANTE RUN&GUNNING spec-L is designed for high octane approaches with treble baits like the KARASHI 80, POPX, and GIANT DOG-X.
Featuring a 6’10” X-Graphite blank, its medium-fast taper is tuned to impart the precise tip action and recovery required to enliven jerkbaits and topwaters. Under increasing load, it delivers an impossibly smooth transition to a midsection that behaves like a regular taper, making this a great choice for lighter cranks like the SUPER-Z series. Its maneuverable length enables tight, technical casts, allowing close-quarters approaches along narrow cast lanes.
Designed for Japanese-style power fishing with fast-moving lures, the RUN&GUNNING spec-L handles everything from lighter jerkbaits like the ¼ oz. X-NANAHAN and 3/8 oz. X-80 Trick Darter, to topwater staples like the POPX and GIANT DOG-X.
Built for anglers who favor an active run-and-gun style, this rod delivers comfort, control, and adaptability across a wide range of moving bait applications to cover water efficiently.
LEVANTE’s proprietary high-density
layered graphite construction focuses on material efficiency and action consistency. By
reducing excess resin and optimizing layer patterning for each model, the blank delivers
improved balance and recovery while maintaining the durability required for daily use.
The result is a responsive yet stable feel that enhances casting precision and lure
control without sacrificing forgiveness.
Matched to each rod’s taper and intended application,
Megabass’s original guide layout prioritizes smooth energy transfer and feel. This
system supports LEVANTE’s strong casting performance and controlled load distribution,
allowing anglers to cover water efficiently while maintaining accuracy and feel.
Precision-machined from solid aluminum, this lightweight hood provides secure reel mounting and consistent rigidity while contributing to overall balance and durability.
LEVANTE incorporates ITO-designed ergonomic reel seats developed to support natural hand positioning and intuitive control. Minimalist contact surfaces reduce unnecessary material while preserving stability, comfort, and sensitivity across both casting and spinning applications.
Built for power fishing, the sculpted design and long trigger provide overwhelming grip for big bait and heavy cover applications. Whether one or two-finger casting or utilizing a full-palm retrieve, ITS is designed to accommodate various grip styles with confidence.
The fast-back design of the reel seat bridge fits deep in the palm of the hand, providing increased contact points to improve feel and control in spinning applications. The IES’s sweeping, tapered fore-grip allows direct contact with the exposed blank, enhancing the kind of delicate bite-detection that is required in deep finesse fishing.
Finding the Sweet Spot — and Knowing When to Push It The Karashi 80 exists in a dimension of its own, unlocked by its smaller predecessor. Born from a bait-finesse mindset, it refuses to stay confined to ultra-light or ultra-subtle applications. Its real strength reveals itself when you understand where its operational center lives, and when conditions justify pushing outward […]
By late spring, as the final echoes of the spawn fade into the warmth of early summer, bass begin to look up. It’s topwater season—arguably the most electrifying window in bass fishing—and few presentations capture the aggression and opportunism of post-spawn bass like a walking bait skittering across the surface. Two elite contenders stand at […]
Where MAGDRAFT Excels The rigged MAGDRAFT is built around three features. The patented Mag-Hold system, category-defining action, a hookup percentage that held up across seasons, forage types, and bass species. It was built for shallow water, and inside that zone it has no equal. Bassmaster pro Kenta Kimura has fished the MAGDRAFT on two continents, […]
