GOLD Ocean is Hearty Rise's deep-sea boat series, a high-load design built around 300 to 600 go sinkers for fish holding at 200 m to 300 m. The blanks blend glass fiber with carbon (the spec sheet lists 99 percent glass) for the deep, powerful bend that heavy deep-drop work demands, topped with a high-sensitivity white tip that shows faint bites at depth. Hardware is boat-duty throughout: an aluminum alloy reel seat with a double locking ring to keep big reels planted, a one-piece knurled alloy foregrip that will not slip in a rod holder, and a gimbal-and-safety-ring butt arrangement.
The range is four one-piece models: 205 and 225 lengths (2.01 m to 2.23 m) each offered with ALPS roller guides or Fuji ring guides. Weights run 1315 g to 1452 g, appropriate for a rod that lives in a holder or gimbal. The gold cosmetic package matches the GOLD line's styling.
