Gamakatsu Akilas 80H Spinning Rod 2.4m 10–45g Extra Fast

Gamakatsu Akilas 80H — Deep-Running Precision for Serious Predator Anglers

The Akilas (A Ki Las) 80H is a two-piece carbon spinning rod built around a powerful blank and an ex-fast action — the go-to combination for anglers targeting predators with heavier lures and deep presentations.

Sensitive Tip, Stiff Backbone

The ex-fast action concentrates the flex in the upper tip section while keeping the lower blank exceptionally rigid. This means you feel every bump and twitch transmitted through a jig or wobbler, yet the rod still loads quickly enough to launch long, accurate casts with lures up to 45g.

Built for Deep Water and Bottom Work

The 10–45g casting range covers a wide spectrum of productive setups: deep-diving hard lures, paddle-tail shads on heavy jig heads, and bottom-contact techniques such as bottom jigging. The stiff mid and butt section also makes the rod well suited to trolling applications where direct contact with the lure and solid hook-setting power matter most.
