Hearty Rise Zander Game Xt Spinning Rod 2.29m 10–44g

Hearty Rise Zander Game XT — Precision Spinning Rod for Zander and Predator Fishing

The Zander Game XT (Extra Tough) is a purpose-built spinning rod engineered around one of freshwater fishing's most challenging targets. At 2.29 m with a 10–44 g casting range, it covers the full spectrum of medium-weight hard and soft baits used in modern predator fishing.

Advanced Carbon Blank Technology

The blank combines TorayCA® T1100G carbon fibres with Hearty Rise's NET-V III carbon construction technique. The result is a blank that is simultaneously lighter, faster, and more resilient than conventional carbon rods — translating directly into longer casts, cleaner hook-sets, and confident fish control through the fight.

Sensitive Tip, Fuji Hardware Throughout

The rod's fast action tip is tuned to telegraph the hesitant, subtle takes that wary zander are notorious for, giving you time to react before the fish spits the bait. Fuji SIC-O guides keep friction low and protect braided lines, while the Fuji reel seat delivers a secure, vibration-transmitting connection between reel and blank. At 131 g, the overall build stays light enough for all-day casting sessions from both bank and boat.
