ZENAQ Tobizo DBL Offshore Casting Rods
Tobizo is ZENAQ’s ultimate offshore casting rod—engineered for big game fishing at the highest level. Its astonishing casting distance and overwhelming power allow anglers to face off against the toughest targets, such as giant trevally and massive tuna. Since its debut, the Tobizo series has proven its performance across the world’s oceans.
Now, with the integration of ZENAQ’s groundbreaking blank structure—the DBL Power Booster—Tobizo evolves once again.
The Ultimate Blanks Structure
The ultimate blank structure for defeating monsters—refined through ZENAQ’s precision multi-layer carbon design and proprietary high-pressure molding technology.
Refined Casting Distance
It delivers overwhelming lifting power, enabling anglers to keep applying pressure and force monsters to rise—while conserving stamina through long, grueling fights. By fusing repulsive power and flexibility, the blank also supports a wider lure range and casting versatility.
The Tobizo DBL redefines what’s possible—taking ZENAQ’s relentless pursuit of distance even further.
Its innovative blank structure efficiently transfers casting power to the lure, while meticulous tuning ensures a crisp, clean release.
That one cast — that extra few meters — could be the moment that brings the unreachable within reach.
Unrivaled Lift Power
More than just brute strength—DBL Power Booster delivers lifting power on a completely different level. By eliminating excessive stiffness, each blank is engineered so that anglers of all physiques can fully harness the rod’s potential. Every model is designed to give you full control over the battle—transforming critical moments into unforgettable triumphs.
In GT games where explosive short fights are the norm, these rods feature supple tips fused with fierce repulsive power and seamless energy transfer—enabling sharp, relentless pressure.
Meanwhile, the MONSTER BUSTER models, purpose-built for long-duration tuna fights, are equipped with a Monster Blank that exerts greater force the deeper you bend it. Even during battles that stretch for hours, these rods minimize fatigue while empowering the angler to execute their strategy to the end. A one-of-a-kind design that dramatically boosts your landing success in solo fight against your dream catch.
TC80-180G - DBL: A popping special built to animate big poppers.
The TC80-180G is purpose-built to unleash the full potential of large, high-resistance poppers in GT and tuna games—targeting true monsters like trophy GT and tuna up to 100kg. It delivers both the power to create loud, explosive pop sounds on the surface, and the precision to control your lure centimeter by centimeter—move your rod 20 cm, and the lure follows 20 cm. Move it 1 meter, and the lure tracks 1 meter. This sharp responsiveness allows for both aggressive action and delicate manipulation, unlocking the full performance of heavyweight poppers.
TC80 TUNA Monster Buster - DBL: A whole new kind of monster rod built to land 200kg giants with lightweight lures.
As its name suggests, the Monster Buster was made to dominate 200kg-class tuna—with incredible lift power. But its true strength lies in its ability to cast and control lightweight lures with remarkable ease. Traditional tuna rods could hardly handle 70g-class lures with accuracy and distance—but this one can. A power rod that breaks the trade-off—delivering both massive strength and uncompromised performance with lightweight lures. By expanding the lower end of its lure range, the rod allows for more flexible approaches—dramatically increasing hit probability. It also supports large plastic lure styles commonly used in European bluefin tuna games. And when the fight begins, the Monster Blank, driven by the DBL Power Booster, delivers explosive recoil as it bends—producing astonishing lift power. A fusion of “lightweight lure operability” and “uncompromising power”—only possible through DBL technology. This is a new weapon to overcome once-impossible conditions—and finally land your dream.
TC77 TUNA Monster Buster - DBL: A flagship monster rod born to conquer 200kg-class tuna.
This rod was built for one purpose—turning your dream of landing 200kg giants into reality.
ZENAQ’s ultimate tuna rod, designed to support the angler through every second of the fight. With its high-repulsive Monster Blank, it enables anglers of all body types to fully bend the rod and apply relentless lift—even against monstrous 200kg tuna. Its taper design blends raw power with refined flexibility, allowing explosive force without sacrificing control. What’s more, it withstands full-drag pressure from large reels at 65°rod angles—delivering unrivaled durability in extreme battle conditions. But this rod isn’t just about brute force. Its action is tuned for smooth use of heavyweight lures over 150g—allowing you to cast long in bait ball situations and animate large lures with lifelike motion. Engineered with the groundbreaking DBL Power Booster structure, this is a monster rod that breaks every convention. And it’s matched with only the toughest components worthy of facing off against true giants. A dream rod built to go head-to-head with monster tuna—and win.
