RIPPLE FISHER ULTIMO 83M (2023 NEW)

The Ultimo series will be reborn in 2023 as the most advanced boat casting rod series. The boat casting game scene is evolving and changing on a daily basis and in order to meet the needs of the anglers in the field, we have broadened the lineup of rods for more specialized situations. For the new series, we have focused our attention on the standard performances of these rods. The core values are simply to be light and have outstanding casting distance.

The new models to be released in 2023 for the Ultimo series include the 82ML, 83M and 710MH. We have given each model unique characteristics and absolute performance to reach the pinnacle of boat casting rods for Ripplefisher. Compared to the old models which were specifically to target GT, the new Ultimo series are designed for both GT and Kingfish. The rods are highly well balanced, light, able to cast well and equipped with outstanding butt power to overcome the powerful thrashing of the monstrous fish.

We hope you can first handedly experience the evolution of our new Ultimo series and be ahead of the game in the ever changing boat casting game scene.

The spirit of the new Ultimo lies in the distinguished casting distance the blank produces. It is the flagship model of Ripplefishers boat casting game rods with carefully selected guide settings, coloring and components.

• The logo for the Ultimo is metallic silver and the model name is in matt color under the butt guide.
• For all models, we have utilized SiC-S titanium frame K+Sic-RV guides for optimal excretion of the line.
• Titanium ring attached under the reel-seat with model name engraved.
• By inserting a resinous ring in the grip end rubber cap, it will drastically reduce the grip end being stuck in the gimble belt (fighting belt) during the fight, allowing for a smooth fight to landing of the fish.

ULTIMO 83M（2023 NEW）

This will be your standard model with a total balance of casting feel, controllability and fighting performance factors required to target GT and Kingfish. Anglers will easily be able to sharply cast out diving pencils and poppers around 240mm while lightly and effectively maneuvering the lure through the manually handling blank. Once the rod is loaded with the weight of the fish, it will bend in nicely and allow anglers to put their weight behind the rod to efficiently lift the fish with the responsive strength of the blank. It is ideal for not only GT but also great for aggressively fighting the large kingfish in shallow areas.
