Höwk – The Special One-XL Overhead

The Special One series has been specially developed for fast jigging fishing or when fishing with bait. They are average action rods with a very good reserve of power that allows working large catches with great comfort. With a softer tip, this is ideal for using bait, no matter if you fish in the tropics or in Norway for cod, ling and especially Halibut.
Since it came out, this model has not ceased to surprise us, it has been able to fight with amberjack, tropical grouper and some cubera snappers weighing more than 30 kg.

The blanks are composed of the best carbon on the market Toray T1K. The helical arrangement of the carbon results in a high strength and flexibility blank with extremely low weight.
As it is a short fast jigging rod, it has a total parabolic action that makes fighting much more comfortable.

This rod is built with “Sprial wrap” or “Acid wrap” as it’s also called, meaning that the guides twist around the blank for better balance, control and feeling. This rod features Fuji SIC guides that have a very hard silicon carbide ceramic. This brings us to lower friction, so it will allow us better sets, collection, and less suffering of the thread by heating as with other types of rings, ideal for fishing large fish. In addition to this, their frames are usually made of stainless steel or titanium. They are high-end rings, and therefore of high quality.

Graphite reel holder and stainless steel rings with protectors. This is one of the highest quality reel seats from Fuji, lightweight but highly resistant. The rubber crosshead from Fuji is very comfortable for supporting and fighting large fish. The fact that the plug is made of rubber makes it very comfortable in case of not using a combat belt and incorporates the crosshead designed for use with a belt, making the fight with a large fish much more enjoyable.

The handles are made of high density foam, ergonomic and finished in grey color.

Comes with a padded reed cover with internal foam to protect them as much as possible during transportation.
