The Zenaq Inqlude IS82-M4 Squid Impact is the latest release in the Include range. This egging designed rod is the more powerful of the two with increased torque throughout the blank based on Zenaq's parabolic action. The IS82-M4 is designed mainly for throwing Egi lures in the 3-4 sizes where you want to really punch the cast out for distance and or in windy conditions. Zenaq have been building squid specific rods for over 20 years after the original release of an aggressive egging range in 2001. In 2004 the unique parabolic action was released to the market but it took a few years for anglers to realise its superiority in the art of egging. Now after 20 years the new Parabolic actioned Inqlude IS82-M4 Squid Impact has made its return to the field, evolved with a new carbon material blank.
Parabolic Action?
By using high elasticity carbon for the tip and medium elasticity carbo for the butt, it has a unique action that bends from the butt while still having tension. By bending from the butt, energy is accumulated and the power is transmitted to the high elasticity tip all at once. This helps create powerful casting and jerking that cannot be experienced with a fast taper. The way this rod actioned is achieved is not making the rod as light as possible. To create a true parabolic action a thick blank with some mass is essential. Rather than making the rod lighter Zenaq focused on developing a rod blank that does the job that it really needs to.
New Rod Features:
Zenaq's unique RG guide system, which has a high reputation as "the guide system with the least line trouble", has been further improved. By evolving the conventional RG butt guide (RG7) into the ultra-high "RG10", it can handle a wide range of mid-shore games up to PE3 class lines. The RG10 instantly suppresses the line loop released from the reel spool and converts it into a straight line trajectory without fluttering. This new RG10 guide system has been beefed up to allow the use of up to 60lb shock leaders to be used further enhancing the versatility of this rod,
Like most new models from Zenaq it also features there new Hexagon reel seat. The Hexagon reel seat uses a carbon frame skeleton and a special rubber that does not change due to hydrolysis. By covering the entire rod with rubber designed with exquisite hardness, it creates an unprecedented feeling that fits your hand, and the unique hexagonal shape makes it easy to hold the rod with little force. Another fantastic feature of this reel seat is that it doesn't come loose during a long fight!!
The Zenaq Inqlude IS82-M4 Squid Impact will best suit reels in the 2500-3000 size reel from Shimano or Daiwa. This rod will also balance and work with a 4000 size reel if line capacity is what your after.
