IPPON DEADSTOCK 70's / SEIRYU 24SS004
WAZAO-IPPONBack to the 70's: Rediscovering Bamboo Rods
This rod is crafted to help you explore the essence of bamboo fishing rods and turn your local natural environments into your personal fishing grounds. The "nobe-zao style" WAZAO is perfect for various fishing locations, from lower to midstream rivers, ponds, and lakes, to pier fishing. It sensitively conveys the bites of small fish like dace, minnows, and crucian carp directly to your hand while letting you feel the life force of the fish throughout the entire rod, creating a unique connection with nature. Fishing with a nobe-zao offers one of the most direct experiences of a fish’s pull. As you assemble the multiple sections, akin to a Matryoshka doll, into a single rod, your senses connect deeply with the natural world (True Nature) through the line and bamboo. This rod’s versatility makes it suitable for various fishing scenarios and an excellent tool for understanding the properties of bamboo rods.

WAZAO-IPPON 2024 SUMMER COLLECTION First Release: "Resistance"
This limited Seiryu rod collection, revived after nearly 60 years and adorned in deep crimson, has been meticulously restored by skilled rod builders. It’s, to say the least, incredibly dope. We hope you’ll grasp this bamboo, once swayed by the winds of Showa, and stand resilient against the headwinds of Reiwa with a spirit of resistance.
Note: "Nobe-zao" traditionally refers to a single-piece rod without joints. However, we use the term here to describe rods that operate without a reel, with the line connected directly to the rod tip.
Since this product is made from natural materials, changes in appearance may occur depending on storage conditions and usage. We encourage you to enjoy the aging process as part of the experience. Maintenance and warranty limitations apply, so please be aware before purchase.
