The brand's slow pitch jigging family, built on Toray carbon blanks with a progressive parabolic action: flexible tips for jig control over a stronger mid-section for the fight. Guides are Fuji SIC mounted in a spiral layout to reduce blank torsion. The standard Hot Spot (sizes 100 to 350, all 6'3" one-piece) carries a Fuji trigger seat for overhead reels, while the Hot Spot S covers spinning tackle in 100S to 350S plus a 50S microjigging model rated PE 0.8.
The Hot Spot 250 Xtreme and 250S Xtreme are upgraded 250-class builds with larger guides, a matte carbon finish, and combined EVA and 3A cork grips. Best jig weights match the model number, from 50 g to 350 g, with line ratings from PE 0.8 to PE 4.
