The HOTS Stiletto Slow Style 3rd Generation series brings slow-pitch jigging rods to the next level with cutting-edge materials and refined performance. Designed for a wide range of jigging applications—from coastal Inchiku fishing to powerful blue runner battles in medium depths—these rods deliver a perfect balance of sensitivity, strength, and control.
The butt section features Four-direction set carbon cloth, replacing traditional plain weave carbon to deliver significantly higher strength and torsional rigidity without added weight. Combined with a high-modulus carbon blank, the result is a rod that is light, tough, and remarkably sensitive. The tip section is finished with a 1 mm pitch unsanded wrap to maintain both strength and lightness.
Both spinning and conventional models feature Fuji TORZITE guides with titanium frames for superior line protection and durability. A revolutionary lock nut reel seat system prevents loosening during fights, while the spinning models utilize a Fuji TVS seat for improved grip and comfort.
Field-tested in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, the Stiletto Slow Style 3rd Generation rods offer crisp, precise jig action and the lifting power to control strong fish even in challenging conditions.
