Highlights

T1100G and Fuji, in a short blank

Toray T1100G is one of the highest-performance carbon fibres available to rod builders. In a 5 ft 8 in slow-pitch blank it gives you feel at depth without giving up lifting power.

Toray T1100G carbon

A high-performance Japanese fibre - stiffness and strength per gram that ordinary carbon does not reach.

5 ft 8 in, one piece

A single continuous blank, so the slow-pitch load and release curve is uninterrupted.

100-350 g jigs, 20 kg drag

Built for real depth and real current, and for the fish that live there.

Fuji guides

The component that matters most on a technique fished with fine PE braid.

Product description

About this product

Slow-pitch jigging rewards a blank that is precisely tuned. The rod has to load smoothly on the lift and release cleanly on the drop, because that release is what makes the jig flutter and what triggers the bite. Too stiff and the jig never flutters; too soft and you cannot lift the fish.

The S581/800 is built on Toray T1100G, which is near the top of what is available to rod builders – a high-modulus, high-strength carbon that lets a designer make a blank both thin-walled and stiff. On a slow-pitch rod that translates into a blank you can feel a jig working through, at 100 metres, with a strong current running.

It is a one-piece blank at 5 ft 8 in with a separating rear grip, so it packs to 126.8 cm without a ferrule in the working section. The tip measures 2.3 mm and the butt 12.6 mm, which is the taper that produces the slow-pitch curve. Guides are Fuji. Maximum drag is 20 kg and the jig rating is 100-350 g.

The Voyager series is Noeby’s offshore big-fish line and has now been retired from their current catalogue, so what is in the market is what remains. Off Dar es Salaam this rod is aimed at the deep drop-offs and pinnacles – amberjack, grouper, jobfish, snapper, kingfish and the dogtooth tuna that take a jig on the drop.

Questions

Good to know

What is slow-pitch jigging?

A technique where the rod does the work. You lift, the blank loads, and as you drop the tip it unloads and throws the jig into a flutter. The fish eats it on the fall. It is far less physical than speed jigging and often more effective on structure-dwelling fish.

What does T1100G mean?

It is a Toray carbon fibre grade - one of the highest-performance fibres available to rod builders, with very high tensile strength and modulus. In practice it lets the blank be thinner and stiffer for the same strength, which is what gives a slow-pitch rod its feel at depth.

What reel should I use?

A 6000-8000 size spinning reel with a strong sealed drag and PE 2.5-3 braid. The rod is rated to 20 kg of drag, so it is worth pairing with a reel that can deliver it.

Where does slow pitch work around Dar es Salaam?

Anywhere with depth and structure: the offshore drop-offs and pinnacles, the Mafia channel, the deep reef edges north and south of the city, and the banks. Grouper, snapper, jobfish, amberjack, kingfish and dogtooth tuna all take slow-pitch jigs here.

How does it compare with the VSJ602M-S?

The VSJ602M-S is 6 ft on a Torayca Double-X blank with Fuji K-guides and a Fuji DPS seat. This one is shorter at 5 ft 8 in and built on T1100G. Both are rated 100-350 g and 20 kg. The shorter rod gives the fish less leverage; the longer gives slightly more jig stroke.

What does the 800 in the model name mean?

Noeby have not documented it. It appears to be a power or jig-class designation within the Voyager line - a casting version, C581-800, exists alongside this spinning model. We would rather tell you it is undocumented than invent a meaning for it.

How do I look after it?

Rinse the blank, guides and reel seat in fresh water after every trip and dry before storage. Check the guide inserts for chips - slow-pitch rods run fine braid under sudden load, and a chipped ring will cut it. Store the rod flat or hanging, never leaning under tension.

Do you deliver outside Dar es Salaam?

Yes, nationwide. Tell us your destination and we will quote transport.
