NITRO - Tuna Winch

With the growing popularity of anglers chasing southern bluefin tuna in Bass Strait, it was only a matter of time before Nitro produced its own specialty game rod - the "Tuna Winch." The Tuna Winch is a 24kg IGFA Class, fully rollered 5ft- 7inch, Stand-up Stroker game rod that’s designed to tackle giant southern bluefin, yellowfin tuna and other pelagic game species that suit 24kg line class. Built from indestructible Class A High Impact Defence Grade Japanese made graphite, the same epoxy toughened, advanced pre-preg composite material that’s used by the Boeing Company for structural applications in their next-generation 787 Dreamliner aircraft. The Tuna Winch comes fully mounted with AFTCO’s Heavy Duty roller guides which feature AFLON™ high performance bearings. Also featured is Nitro’s ‘Winch-Grip’, a finger-contoured fore-grip that eliminates the tendency of the hand to slide down the grip, thus ensuring maximum leverage is maintained during a sustained fight. Additionally, the flattened upper surface of the Winch-Grip’ allows the line to be pinned under the thumb to apply controlled pressure when pumping on a big fish. The heavy duty reel seat features fully machined anodized aluminium body and hoods with dual locking rings. The gimbal is similarly machined, anodized aluminium with a snug fitting durable rubber/vinyl compound textured butt cap for protection.
