Hearty Rise builds rods that combine sharp looks with genuine on-the-water performance.

Rod Series for Pike Anglers

The Hearty Rise Fire Master Meter Over Casting is the successor to the Predator BC - a rod series built specifically for pike anglers. These rods are designed to cast medium to large lures, such as large soft lures, effortlessly over distance, while still having the backbone to handle hard-fighting, heavy pike. The powerful carbon blank is constructed using V-Net technology, delivering greater power alongside excellent feedback and sensitivity. Even big pike can bite with surprisingly little force, and at range that makes sensitivity all the more critical - especially when a bow in the braid or choppy waves are pulling at your line. Being able to feel the take through all that interference and react quickly before the fish spits the lure is exactly what these rods are built for, making them accomplished tools for pike fishing. The black blank with red accents gives each rod that visual edge that sets it apart from the crowd. Perform well, and you're entitled to look the part.

Fuji - What Else!

Hearty Rise relies on proven quality components throughout. Every rod is fitted with Fuji guides and a Fuji reel seat. The guide train on each model consists of 10 Fuji KW guides with Alconite inserts - reliable, robust, quiet running and well suited to braid. Two different reel seat types are used: the two lighter models, MO-C01 and MO-C02, come with a Fuji PULS reel seat, while the two heavier models feature a Fuji T-DPS reel seat. Both reel seats are designed for baitcasters and suit their respective rod perfectly.
