Squid KING II

Squid King II is the second generation of Hearty Rise's long boat rod for swordtip squid. The white high-visibility tip remains the signal reader for faint squid takes, while the blank moves to a carbon construction (90% carbon) reinforced with a full-length carbon tape cross weave. Guides are HB series anti-tangle frames combined with rotating guides, a pairing the factory states cuts line wrap substantially on long rods fished at night.

Furniture follows the first Squid King: a very hard EVA grip with laser-etched non-slip pattern, an aluminum alloy reel seat with double locking rings, and a one-piece knurled aluminum butt that seats firmly in a boat rod holder. The tail plug adds an integrated stainless hanger ring for optional counterweights. The single model extends 6.3 m to 7.2 m over five sections, closes to 165 cm, weighs 3028 g, and is rated for 350 gou sinkers, finished in purple-red chameleon paint.
