Hitotsu Tenya model

The Grandship 1G Hitotsu Tenya model (GR1HT) is a dedicated boat spinning rod series for hitotsu-tenya and tai-rubber fishing, primarily made for red sea bream (madai) in Japanese offshore waters. Hitotsu tenya is a finesse bottom-contact technique using a single hook weighted rig; it demands a rod that transmits delicate bites from cautious fish while providing enough backbone to work tenya and kabura jigs in current. This series sits in the 1G (entry-to-mid) grade and is designed to give access to specialty tenya performance at moderate cost.

The series uses high and medium density carbon blanks. A key design split within the lineup is between standard tubular-tip and a solid-tip configuration. Solid tips maximize bite detection and reduce resistance felt by a fish mouthing the tenya, which is critical for reluctant bream. Tubular tips provide a slightly more progressive Fast action suited to anglers who prefer direct feedback and stronger hook-sets. All models use Fuji guides and standard spinning reel seats. All four models are 7'6" or 7'8" spinning rods covering H, XH, and MH power ratings.

The base H-power model (S762H) and its solid-tip sibling (S762H/B) sit at the lightest end for tenya weights of roughly 30-90 g. The XH model handles heavier tenya in deeper or faster water up to around 130 g. The S782MH model is the only 7'8" variant, offering MH power for mid-range versatility with slightly more reach.
