Yamaga Blanks Early for Seabass Rods

Yamaga Blanks set as a target for a Sea bass rod to have the following characteristics:

• a wide angle release point at the time of casting
• a blank design that anyone can handle easily and cast far with the use of minimal strength
• to be light and sensitive
• to reduce fatigue even after fishing for long hours

The above goals have become standard in the Yamaga Blanks Early range. The Early for Seabass pursues an even higher cost performance ratio by meeting the above requirements as standard, without allowing any compromise in quality. The Early for Seabass rod range addresses various anglers’ needs and the lineup emphasizes easy-to-use length settings and long-distance casting performance that allows you to easily gain distance.

Blanks must not only have strength and low weight, but also the ability to quickly return to their original state (action). In other words, any rod should possess the capacity to instantly return to its natural state and have the power to "detach" fighting fish from the bottom of the sea. Rigid, but highly sensitive tips, despite any unforeseen changes in weather and sea conditions, remain versatile and allow the angler to use the rod in a variety of fishing techniques, with different baits and rigs. Fishing when targeting the species that are active in the lower part of the water column, near the difficult terrain of the rocky bottom has special and usually difficult requirements. We should not just wait for the prey that is active near the rocky bottom to strike. The main goal is to reel it into the shore.

One point worth focusing on, is the analysis provided by a leading company, such as Yamaga Blanks, regarding the Casting Weight of its rods and how this becomes a determining factor, in the rod design process, but also for the ideal use of lures and rigs. Casting Weight for premium rods, such as the Yamaga Blanks, is not just a number that indicates the weight of the bait a rod can cast, but a series of measurements that determine during the blank’s construction, whether the rod casts properly, if it produces the right bending curve, or if it will properly manage lures made of different materials, at different depths.

Each type of artificial bait (whether it is a Pencil, Minnow, Jigheads with Silicones, Jig, etc.) but also rigs (such as Caro, Carolina, Texas, Fluke) have different casting requirements. The rod’s casting distance however, is determined by many factors such as weight, the mass of the lure, or rig and the weather conditions (a factor which does not affect the construction of the blank). Add to the above the depth to which our lure must reach and you can understand how many factors determine, whether our rod works properly, or not.

In this case, Yamaga Blanks gives us plenty of information and details about the development of the blanks of the Early series regarding the Casting Weight, according to the type of the lure, or rig. For example, rigs such as the Caro, Carolina, Texas, and Fluke face greater air resistance during casting than a Jig, or Minnow (Plug) thus these rods allow us to use more weight in such rigging, in an effort to achieve a better casting distance, without putting the rod under pressure. On the other hand, a Minnow lure is more compact and can achieve a better shot with less weight. To sum up, Yamaga Blanks provides detailed information about the Casting Weight of the Early for Seabass rod series, depending on the type of lure we are going to use, its characteristics - such as weight - and the requirements to perform great casts. The Casting Weight mentioned is the ideal range for any category of lure, or rigging.

The Yamaga Blanks Early for Seabass 93M is a multi-purpose model, that can be used in all seasons and situations, including wading all the way to long-distance casting performance in harbors and offshore shallows. The handling of 7 - 12 cm / 7 – 35 gr class lures, is particularly good and even lures with pull resistance such as Vibration lures have less burden on the angler’s wrist even after long fishing hours and reel ins. During the strike you will notice that the bending curve utilizes the biggest part of the blank, enhancing the fighting performance and reducing the disparity.

The Early for Seabass 97MMH is a model that will make a difference when fishing in large rivers estuaries or areas with intense currents. With a blank design that achieves a stable flight distance, even if it is lightweight rod, it will provide action to the lure with the slightest twitch and can handle a variety of species, all the way to immigratory, open sea species. The 97MMH has a delicate tip, that accurately conveys changes in the flow of currents, even when using a 9 cm class. At the same time it can cast without stress a 15 cm class Minnow. It is a model with butt power with torque that can be utilized with confidence.

Bending Curve

It is a bending comparison, with a static load of 1 kg applied to the Early for Seabass series. The static load comparison does not express all the characteristics of the rod. This comparative image shows the weight gently hung with the reel set on the rod. The momentary repulsive force of the rod and the feeling of use when operating the lure are not expressed. Please see it as a comparison of the power and condition of the rod.
