The F2-70XSTZ LOPROS is a versatile spinning rod that can handle anything from fishing with lightweight hard plugs to all types of finesse rigs. The extreme long-distance approach made possible by the 7’ shaft dramatically increases the productive zones of lures such as shads and small minnows, driving up bite chances. The LOPROS is highly suited for many methods, from boat-based dragging to lift-and-fall with mini vibration bait from shore. Developed to be a long-distance rod with excellent controllability, its unique high elasticity high tension construction exhibits sensitivity that far surpasses that of other multi piece rods. It delicately controls finesse rigs such as neko rigs and down shots, accurately senses terrain changes and instantly transmits shorts bites back to the angler. The high-tension blank makes solid hook setting possible even over long distances. The LOPROS creates opportunity under tough conditions. It can be stowed away compactly and is very convenient to have on hand. This long approach spinning rod is perfect for the angler searching for a convenient multipurpose model.
Yuki Ito and ITO engineering have come together to develop TRIZA, a realization of an entirely new “Triangle” concept of three-piece rod design and construction. This idea leverages the ability to build each blank section specifically to its purpose, blending unique functions into each section of the blank to deliver performance that would be impossible with traditional one-piece construction. The tip section maximizes tension, the belly section maximizes torque, and the butt section maximizes torsional rigidity. By having each of the three sections perform a specialized function, the TRIZA displays exceptional performance that leaves conventional multi-piece rods in the past. As a result of the reduction of overlapping duplicate layers, an improvement in total weight balance is achieved, creating an astonishing lightweight feel.
The Triangle concept harnesses the unique properties of each section according to the functional needs of each blank, allowing for a more-perfect alignment with fast-moving hardbaits or soft baits, etc. The resulting TRIZA is a completely new mobile rod that flies in the face of past engineering. From the natural bird’s eye peacock wood reel seat, ergonomic short trigger carved out of pure aluminum, silky hand-threading performed by a skilled craftsman, painstakingly polished guides, to the hand drawn graphics, each one of these high-spec rods has been painstakingly crafted one at a time. If you’re looking for an uncompromising bass fishing experience, the TRIZA will not disappoint.

Rare bird’s eye wood is utilized in each rod with a unique stain applied to increase water resistance durability. The high density of the wood serves a functional aspect as it allows for a good balance that favors the butt section. *Please note: depending on stock and procurement schedules there are times when production will be delayed due to limited material availability.
Each trigger is carved from a high strength lightweight aluminum block, polished by a craftsman, then finished with the legendary hunting rifle colors (matte finish). The 3D carved aluminum process results in an extremely thin high strength short trigger that feels very smooth when switching grips. It fits with any gripping style or placement of fingers. The custom TRIZA trigger is based on applying the latest ergonomics to real world scenarios.
A convenient travel bag custom made for the TRIZA. It comes in handy in many situations. It’s great when traveling by rail, but also great for hiding away in your car’s trunk with a case of tackle. Hidden within the fabric are layers of semi-hard insert plates that help protect the rod and reel from impact. The main compartment allows for the rod to be stored with the reel attached, making it easy to start fishing as soon as you arrive. The pockets on each side are designed to perfectly fit the Lunker Lunch Box Slim. This one bag can store all the tackle you need for your fishing excursions.
