Designed for finesse presentations like dropshots and neko rigs, the LEVANTE WHIPSNAKE has the sensitivity to feel subtle changes at the end of your line, refined control to impart delicate action, and whip-quick power to unleash decisive hooksets. Extra-fast taper allows for a sensitive tip section that transitions load with silky speed, shifting the weight of the fight into the mid and butt section of the blank to maintain control. Silky-smooth load transfer along WHIPSNAKE’s length maximizes the performance of light line, virtually eliminating the line breakage so often associated with unrefined tapers.
Incorporating refinements to taper, balance point, guide positioning and ergonomics, the LEVANTE evolved through countless hours of testing and invaluable dialogue between customers, pro staff, and the Megabass development team. The result is a more-perfect integration of angler and equipment, allowing for intuitive rod work, sure hooksets, and confidence-inspiring “feel”.
Featuring upgraded blank material, construction, and Micro Pitch Taping, each LEVANTE is now lighter, more sensitive, and more responsive. Lighter blanks allow for a refinement in balance points, bringing each model closer to its target application. Finished with Fuji® Stainless Steel Alconite guides, custom metal accents, Megabass original Spiral Architect reel seat, hook keeper, and a premium color-shifting finish, the LEVANTE is sure to delight old and new Megabass enthusiasts alike.
