The Ultimate Fishing Five 82 Super Distance was originally designed for casting Xorus surface lures such as the frosty, Patchinko and Asturies, and diving lures such as the Duo Tide Minnow range.
This rod is simply outstanding for casting and working hard lures and metals, it requires almost no effort to get your lure to jerk, pop or walk due to the perfect fast action which was actually designed for the lures many of use.
Based on the Tenryu Super Distance it is the go-to rod for so many anglers in the Channel Islands and is also very popular up in North Wales and on the South West coastline.
Ultimate Fishing are the European distributer for Tenryu rods and they have collaborated closely with Tenryu on the design and build of the Five Sp rods
Made in Japan, the Ultimate Fishing Five SP range of rods are all built using the mandrels of Tenryu rods. Of course these are not Tenryu, but the action is almost identical to them.
The Ultimate Fishing Five 82 Super Distance is fitted with Fuji reel seat and Fuji Sic guides, the “Five SP” rods exceptional quality for the money.
