Steez S66L [SKYFLASH 66]

“It was unlikely, a versatile spin. I was curious about what kind of rod could be finished with the highest peak STEEZ.”

In STEEZ, where the ultimate exclusive model is lined up, “SKYFLASH66” has a unique presence with the landing point on the versatile from the beginning. It was Toshinari Namiki who set up the amazing concept. Mr.STEEZ, that person.
“6ft.6in., Returning to the origin of L power. Originally (99/06) SKYFLASH was the ultimate light rig versatile.”

Speaking of the model that bears the name in recent years, 16 same SMT which is the ultimate in operability of the light rig, 18 same power tune which became tough as its name is known. In the predecessor Butler era of 1999, in the first STEEZ of 2006, the concept of SKYFLASH, which was once the central axis of spinning, was eager for Namiki to revive with modern DAIWA rod technology.

The taper design adopted is not a taper that bends from the tip, but a design that emphasizes operability by arranging the bend at the beginning of bending closer to the tip. The taut tip conveys delicate action while hesitating the stack at the bottom, bringing a sense of life to the lightweight rig.

In the bat, 3DX supports the core and X45 full shield tightens the whole body. A blank that does not shake the axis enhances cast accuracy, and a bat with hidden power has a light rig or jig head that uses an offset hook for a better hooking response. The stroke of 6ft.6in. Works fully, making it a reliable and strong ally in scenes such as site fishing that require instant hooking.
“It goes well with small minnows, shads, and light caros as well as lightweight rigs in general. Furthermore, it is also suitable for mid-rise swimming, which has been attracting attention in recent years.”

Midst and Hobust, who rhythmically dance jig heads and no sinkers, are also in the defensive range. The taper design mentioned above vibrates only the rod tip, and SVF Nano Plus clearly transmits the vibration received by the bend concentrated on one point to the hand. It derives excellent sensitivity.
“Now that lures are getting smaller and threads are getting thinner, the need for delicate rods is increasing. However, the basis of fishing we are doing is the same as it was 30 years ago.”

Speaking of Namiki, attention is focused on a spectacular career in the United States, but in the early 90’s before coming to the United States, there was a foundation that swept the title in the domestic scene. Midst is “one of the strengths from that time”. The technique that has been boiled down for many years will reach the time of re-evaluation with SKYFLASH 66.
