Cloud 9
Finesse softbait and light jigging spin rods, PE1 to PE4, with a Long series to 7 ft 8 in
Cloud 9 is the brand's finesse spin family for softbaits, light jigs and light casting, listed on the 2021 site as "Cloud 9 - Softbait & Lightcasting". The Cloud 9 Series has five models stepping from 7 ft 3 in at PE1 through 7 ft 1 in at PE1.5, 7 ft at PE2, 6 ft 9 in at PE3 and 6 ft 7 in at PE4, with a blank tuned for feedback and lure control in both inshore and offshore use. The Cloud 9 Long Series extends the length for casting range and line control from shore or elevated positions: 7 ft 6 in at PE2, 7 ft 7 in at PE3 and 7 ft 8 in at PE4, on Japanese Toray carbon fibre with a moderate-fast action, a short butt section, a Fuji DPS reel seat and Fuji KW Alconite guides. The brand pitches the family for softbait presentations on finicky species where sensitivity matters more than lifting power. Prices are AUD 399.99 to 429.99.
