Product Details
The Qualia Sabiki rod combination set consist of a SB-6 or SB-7 2-piece rod, (6-foot overall length, or 7-foot overall length) a cloth storage protective bag for the rod, and a Qualia new Mul10 spincast reel.
A sabiki rod is a device used to catch bait, small fish to be used in catching much larger fish. The Sabiki rod is unique as it allows you to wind all of the small and very sharp hooks directly into the center of the rod so they are full enclosed and protected from accidentally ending in a human adult or child’s extremities.
The tip of the rod is machined aluminum and funnels the line with the hooks attached inside the rod when you crank the handle on the reel. When you press the release button on the reel, it goes in to free spool to allow all the hooks with the weight on the end to deploy back into the water. When you turn the crank handle on the reel a quarter turn it locks the reel spool so there is no mor line going out unless the fish that are on the hooks start to run. You can then adjust the drag on the reel if needed to stop line from going out.
The rod will accept Sabiki hooks from #6 through # 10. You will have to check and see if any # 12 or larger hooks will pass through the tip. Since there are no standard sizes for Sabiki hooks some brands will go through. We have used anywhere from a half ounce to a 2-ounce sinker on the end to take the lane down and out of the rod. You must make sure that the circle ends on both the Sabiki rigs and you line hardware are small enough to pass through the head on the top of the rod.
The rod and reel need only a rinsing down with fresh clean fresh water when you are finished for the day.
The Qualia Sabiki Rod Combo use the Qualia MuL10 spincast reel as the standard reel for the combo. The reel comes preloaded with 170 yards of 10 lb. mono line on the spool. The handle can be used right or left-handed. The cover and all the hardware are stainless steel.
