Apia Grandage Atlas Blue Runner 106HH/PS

A series that aims at blue-runners from the shore in every scene, from the beach to the embankment.
The GRANDAGE ATLAS BLUE RUNNER series is the successor to the GRANDAGE XD, developed to target blue-runners from the shore. By using Toray 3rd generation carbon TORAYCA®T1100G as the main material of the blank, the casting distance of the lure and the stickiness of the blank are projected. In addition to blanks, we have improved all performances, including rod balance, joints, and blank exteriors. The GRANDAGE ATLAS BLUE RUNNER was born to kill trophy-sized blue-runners under limited conditions for anglers called shores.

PS = plugging special. It has a tip that makes the lure act smoothly, and it is difficult to cause an action error when operating the plug. In addition, the blank of the Blue Runner equipped with the T1100G converges remarkably quickly for the “tip shake” that tends to occur with long-length rods after casting, and has a great effect on the flight distance of large plugs. It is easy to handle 60-100g class plugs, which are frequently used on local rocks and offshore rocks, and is the best model for anglers aiming for over 10kg of kingfish by plugging.

Material: TORAYCA® T1100G / M40J / T800S /

With the advent of “M40X” and “T1100G”, the performance of high-modulus (M40X) and medium-modulus (T1100G) materials has greatly improved. The appearance of TORAYCA® 3rd generation carbon will bring drastic changes to the rock shore game.
* “T1100G” is installed in all models.

Joint: Parallel (NANO JOINT)

The new joint system “NANO JOINT” developed by Apia eliminates the joint tension that is the weak point of 2-piece rods.

NANOALLOY®technology

By installing NANO ALLOY® technology, we have achieved a bending curve that is as close to one piece as possible.

Exterior: Shield tech

APIA’s original finish “Shield Tech” is a thin, abrasion-resistant special tape wrapped around the entire length to protect the blank from external damage.
