Invoker Tour Series

Invoker Tour is ARK's third-generation tournament bass platform, slotted between the entry Invoker Pro and the top-shelf Invoker Limited. The 36-rod matrix serves the technique-focused tournament angler who wants a 40-ton blank with carbon-nanotube reinforcement at a $160 price. Coverage skews heavily toward casting (28 SKUs) with a smaller spinning branch (8 SKUs) for finesse and shaky-head work. Blanks use 40T high-modulus carbon fiber with carbon nanotubes laid between layers, rolled under ARK's high-pressure process and finished un-sanded for sensitivity.

Components include the redesigned Team ARK reel seat and Fuji K-concept tangle-free guides. ARK claims roughly 15 percent weight reduction versus the previous Invoker generation. Warranty is a five-year limited with an $80 replacement fee after the first 90 days. SKUs read IVT + length + power + taper/technique suffix. Decoded suffixes: HFC (Heavy Fast Casting, jigs and big worms), MHFC (MH Fast Casting, all-purpose), MHRC (MH Moderate, treble-hook reaction baits), MHXC and MXC (extra-fast tips for jerkbaits and topwater), MRC (M Moderate, cranks), AR (Alabama Rig), SB (Swimbait), DD (Deep Diving cranks), GS and GSII (Glide bait, Gen 2 update), XHFC (Extra-Heavy flipping/punching).

Spinning SKUs end in S with the same power/taper logic (MLFS, MLXS, MFS, MHXS, LXS). Lengths run 6'6" through 7'11" casting and 6'8" through 7'10" spinning.
