At ISSEN, Nishida Tetsuya has been raft-fishing for over 30 years, and it has been known for being the pinnacle of making rods suitable for the region, environment and purpose.
ISSEN’s optimized tips one by one ensure that you never miss a fish contact. In addition, the power of the fish is received by the entire rod so that you can enjoy the flavor without letting the fish run wild. But this rod is by no means “soft”. In general, there are many raft rods that have been hardened and hardened by the Moto-sao (butt), but ISSEN’s unique design maximizes rod power by linking the belly and butt firmly. Because it is a short rod, the longest possible range of its total length is designed to function as a suspension depending on the power of the fish.
In other words, it is the reason that the Japanese experts have supported the delicate balance of the delicate tip and the carefully designed rod body.
A simple and stylish design is also an important point of ISSEN. As with traditional Japanese crafts, good tools have styling that does not interfere with functionality. The high-quality details that only the owner has will make you feel better.
ISSEN is a rod that can be finished by spending enormous amount of time by repeatedly pouring experience and technology into each one, repeating manual work and fine adjustment for you.
Beautiful and strong. This is ISSEN’s rod making.
