The GHBF48-3UL is a compact powerhouse built for remote headwaters, where access often
demands climbing and surefooted determination. The HUNTSMAN’s modern shaft moves as a
natural extension of your arm, delivering effortless control when deploying lures from any
angle or position. Its compact form excels in tight quarters, enabling aggressive, pinpoint casts
even when traditional backswings are impossible. Despite its slim profile, the taut butt section
offers a crisp, decisive backbone for sharp twitching presentations, while the high-tension belly
precisely controls both the hookset and the spirited fight of mountain stream fish. Defying the
expectations of an ultralight, the HUNTSMAN boasts exceptional lifting power, empowering
anglers to confidently target upper-class fish from precarious, elevated positions while
deploying the finesse baits needed to tempt wary targets.
It is no simple task to reach the wild trout that inhabit the most remote mountain rivers.
Anglers require not only advanced fishing techniques but climbing skills and a deep
understanding of the wilderness. The GREAT HUNTING HUNTSMAN rods are built for naturalists
seeking visceral angling experiences in the farthest reaches.
The multi-piece HUNTSMAN is designed to pack down into a backpack, integrating seamlessly
with challenging hikes and treks. The rod shaft is slender and supple to cast lures down to a
mere 1/32oz with whip-like accuracy and yet possesses the power to handle larger trout in the
+4lb class.
To achieve the ideal tip-up rod balance and one-hand cast ergonomics, dense hardwood
handles are carved and hand-finished for an intuitive pistol-grip feel. Line guides of lightweight
titanium further reinforce the balance. HUNTSMAN recalls the nostalgia of an earlier time, its
packable multi-piece form and hand-finished hardwood bringing us closer to the mountainous
wild with each cast.

By late spring, as the final echoes of the spawn fade into the warmth of early summer, bass begin to look up.

Two elite contenders stand at […]

While many U.S. manufacturers treat travel rods as an afterthought, Megabass has fully embraced them. Why? Because multi-piece rods represent freedom—freedom to explore, […]
Fiji – A name that conjures visions of palm-lined shores and crystalline blue water—and for anglers, one of the most dynamic, challenging, and ultimately rewarding fisheries in the South Pacific.
