Yan Rong IV Zoom 9H (岩溶 IV zoom 極致硬) is a Taiwan shrimp-pond pole at the stiffest grade in the Yan Rong family, built with the NET-V III structural process and SNVC high-density carbon. The extreme 9H hardness is tuned for the striking motion of shrimp fishing, driving the hook home and levering large prawns off the bottom quickly without the blank wobbling after the strike. The tip is a free-rotating swivel type, and a three-stage zoom lets the fishing length be adjusted to the pond, keeping casts, bait control and hooksets precise at any setting.

Two models are offered, a 5-6-7 at 2.18 m in seven sections (140.6 g) and a 6-7-8 at 2.45 m in eight sections (165.3 g), both 99 percent carbon and closing to 41.7 cm. Finish is a color-shifting chameleon paint over an aluminum alloy gun-gray grip, with an aluminum and carbon butt cap and three-stage counterweight system.
