The Apis series is renowned for its crisp, responsive action that enables pinpoint casting around complex structures, and the 72 Apis is the model that most vividly embodies this defining characteristic. Designed with a strong focus on sharp, speedy action, it excels at working jerk-baits around 15 g, executing dog-walks with pencils, and delivering decisive popping actions. It also boasts high sensitivity, allowing for the delicate retrieval of sinking pencil lures under 10g, which are used during the spring runoffs. Centered on boat seabass fishing, the 72 Apis is also ideal for light casting targeting small migratory species such as Spanish mackerel and mahi-mahi with jigs or blade-baits, as well as for technical land-based casting that relies on finesse tactics around inner bays and seawalls. The 72 Apis is an essential tool for anglers who prioritize precise control and tactical game development to induce that rare bite.

By combining the direct control and stable retrieval characteristics of baitcasting reels with the delicate blank of the 71B Apis, this rod allows anglers to clearly sense changes in lure posture and underwater resistance. It is engineered for exceptional operability, enabling varying speed control, drift-based approaches, and precise tracing of the feeding range.Designed for anglers to approach structures, light/darkness transitions, and subtle changes in terrain without missing even the slightest signs of contact.Its flexible bending also accommodates a variety of casting styles, delivering exceptional response even in situations that demand pinpoint casting accuracy down to mere centimeters. In addition, the powerful butt section generates persistent torque during the fight, ensuring reliable strength required around tetrapods and boat-side situations. Combining exceptional castability, precise lure control, and the inherent power characteristic of baitcasting setups, the 71B Apis is a shooting model that sets a new standard for both boat and shore fishing.

The 74 is a special model able to cast out super giant baits exceeding 300mm and 250g. The 74 is approximately two levels more powerful compared to the 60. While being able to over head cast super size joint-baits, anglers are also able to lightly control smaller 3oz lures. It is ideal to maneuver joint-baits with the sharp rod action and will outperform most rods off-shore and land-based.

This rod is designed to target seabass off-shore with the use of big-bait lures. Anglers will be able to cast and maneuver large pencils easily to induce bites from seabass feeding on massive bait-fish during specific seasons of the year. We are also planning to release a long-handle (sold separately). By attaching the long-handle, anglers will be able to easily cast and use the rod from the bow of the boat, in addition for use with land-based fishing. (The length of the rod with the long-handle will be 6.9ft)

Longer handle for Silver Stream 60 Big pencil is available as optional.
※It is sold as just handle itself.

The whole length will be 6ft 9inch when long handle is equipped.
The length from trigger to the end of grip will be extended 115mm, and to top of the front grip will be extended 95mm.　

If you are required distance cast or wish to have more stability when you manipulate lure or fighting with big fish, this long handle will support you, don’t matter from shore or off shore.
