Ripper Fisher is proud to present the OceanRidge series for anglers seeking to push the envelope of the GT game. This unified series consists of dedicated GT rods packed with Ripple Fisher’s pride and joy. This lineup has been designed with considerations for experienced anglers who can get the most out of these rods. All 5 models in the OceanRidge series are especially designed to target the largest of GT that inhabit the waters of the world's remote tropics. Rather than classifying these rods depending on power, Ripple Fisher carefully selected and developed the lineup depending on the unique characteristics of the rods. Every blank in the series incorporates cutting edge NANOALLOY® technology developed by Toray Industries, Inc., and has gone through countless hours of ruthless field testing. 

FS78

This is the most powerful and toughest GT rod Ripple Fisher has ever developed with stiff characteristics in the tip to belly section for easy use with large mouthed poppers and outstanding lifting power in the butt. The blank is highly responsive and once hardcore anglers put his/her full weight behind it, the recovery of the blank will efficiently lift the fish. This rod is ideal for working large-mouthed poppers, and 300mm-class pencil type lures for when the GTs are feeding on larger baitfish. Despite being taxing to fish, this is the rod that you will want in when fishing in strong currents and rugged terrain.

PF711

Fished best in the hands of experts, this rod's true potential will be exhibited once anglers with vast knowledge and skills take hold of it. The nano blank developed by Toray has sharpened the blank's capabilities, allowing anglers to decipher the subtle changes in current and control the lure at the anglers will. The PowerFight 711 has remarkable lifting power and will surface GTs exceeding 50kg simply by loading up the rod and using its repulsive force.

GT80

This is a model where anglers will be able to experience and feel for the distinct difference in the Nano blank. It is lighter, stronger and more sensitive while having an astounding ability to cast long distances. Anglers will be able to utilize pencil type lures and small/medium mouthed poppers to land those massive GTs. The blank has a smooth bend curve with increasing torque as more load is applied on the rod. It is an ideal rod for those who have never experienced our OceanRidge series or those lighter weighing anglers (approx. 60kg) who have the skill to smoothly transfer their body weight on the rod during the fight.

LC82

For those who want to outcast the other anglers on the boat and punch through brutal headwinds, this rod is suited for use with poppers and diving pencil type lures. This rod's nano composition has not only improved the angler's ability to control it while casting and fighting fish, but anglers will also be able to sense the slightest changes in current movement through the blank, line and lure while efficiently and effectively surface dogging GTs.
