Megabass Cookai CK Casting 710EXHC

Long Casts With Big, Heavy Lures

The Megabass Cookai CK Casting 710EXHC is a baitcasting rod built specifically for surfcasting with large, heavy lures. Surfcasting means fishing the sea from the shore, and this rod is designed for hard-fighting saltwater predators such as bluefish and monster sea bass. That said, it works equally well in freshwater, where it comes into its own when targeting pike. This extra-powerful rod from the Cookai series handles large hard lures and soft plastics on heavy jig heads with ease. Whether you're retrieving steadily or drifting the lure with the current, the outstanding feedback allows for highly precise lure control and lightning-fast strikes on the subtlest of takes.

Exceptional Power, Surprisingly Light

The blank of the Megabass Cookai CK Casting 710EXHC is medium fast and built on the 5D Graphite System Version-S technology - an adaptation of the Destroyer P5 blank that set new standards in bass fishing. The moment you pick it up, 34 years of rod-building experience and a relentless process of innovation make themselves felt. Combined with Yuki Ito's philosophy of 'Form follows Emotion', the result is a rod that feels like a natural extension of your arms and senses. You become one with it, fishing with outstanding precision, hour after hour - because the 5D construction makes this rod not only extremely powerful but also astonishingly light, enabling hours of fatigue-free, fully focused fishing. A high-performance rod for surfcasting that holds its own just as well in freshwater, uniting pleasure with performance at the highest level.

Uncompromising Quality From Grip to Rings

As you'd expect from Megabass, the Cookai CK Casting 710EXHC doesn't just impress with its blank - the build quality throughout is meticulous and refined, in true Megabass fashion. None of that comes at the expense of performance: every component is as capable as it is elegant, and each one can be trusted absolutely, even when something truly large takes the lure. The grip is a split grip in premium, robust EVA, paired with a Head Locking System machined from a solid aluminium block. It is extremely tough despite its refined appearance, and actively supports the transmission of the most delicate takes and the subtlest changes in lure behaviour - you feel everything. The highly comfortable reel seat adds to this, with outstanding ergonomics delivering a secure hold and direct contact throughout. Complete control from cast to lure presentation, bite and landing - that's the quality that continues through to the rings.

A Titanium Light Weight frame with SiC-S inserts keeps the ring set ultralight yet extremely stable. This configuration unlocks the full potential of the 5D blank, delivering outstanding casting performance, highly sensitive feedback, precise line management and optimal distribution of the forces acting on the blank during the fight. Whichever aspect of the Megabass Cookai CK Casting 710EXHC you look at, this rod delivers across the board.
