Megabass Orochi XX Bass Rods
Since their inception in 2013 Megabass Orochi XX series rods have embodied the intersection between Japanese rod technologies and North American bass fishing. These new 2018 models feature X47-ASL Metal Fiber Blanks (?kabt?) that have undergone careful testing and refinement in Japan the United Stat...es and Canada. Performance gains include astonishing tensile strength tenacious resilience and a superior power-to-weight ratio that dramatically increases each blank’s lifting power and control. Low-resin carbon of various tonnage is also utilized throughout the 2018 Orochi XX’s balnks increasing each model’s load transfer for instinctive casts and feel. Sensitivity is also taken to the next level with Micro Pitch Taping which brings a new dimension to all bottom-contact applications. On top of upgrading the blank the Orochi XX’s components have been dramatically upgraded through extensive testing with an aim towards reducing overall weight and feel. The original Spiral Architect Reel Seat offers improved ergonomics while also bettering bass angler’s feel by increasing contact area with the rod’s exposed blank. Fuji Stainless Steel SIC guides are placed precisely based off of each blank’s unique properties. There is no doubt the all new for 2018 Megabass Orochi XX rods define an evolution in performance and design offering greater sensitivity lifting power crispness and refinement to all American bass anglers.

Everything You would expect from Megabass

Another fantastic Megabass rod. Like most of their mid to high end rods, it has a remarkably soft, parabolic tip, making this rod more versatile than its power rating would suggest. like all MB rods, the Orochi line is simply gorgeous, with immaculate fit and finish. The EMTF is the 4th Orochi in my lineup and I am happy with all four.

For the price I dont think you can beat the Orochi Whipsnake. Cast light lures a mile and is extremely sensitive. Great rod at a good mid level price point. Excellent service as well. Very happy with my purchase

Awesome megabass quality and amazing rod. However I cant give it 5 stars, it doesnt come with a hook keeper! I understand some high end rods dont have a hook keeper but its wild to me either way great rod.

Fantastic rod! Rod is a lot more versatile than I thought it would be. The tip allows this rod to do things that other rods with this power rating could not.
Mindblown!

This was my first Megabass rod, and it blew my expectations! I fish the 6'11" Whipsnake for general purpose finesse, and it truly excels for Ned rigs, weightless flukes, and tubes; it's built for more than dropshots! I can also feel the fish taking my bait 30+ yard away, even on slack line whether the bait suspends, sinks, or sits on the bottom! It's crisp and light, but has a sturdy…

enough backbone to subdue large smallmouths in strong currents and big drag-smoking trouts! I got mine paired with a Certate 2500LT and 10 lb. Fireline Ultra 8 w/ 6 lb. Super FC Sniper leader, and it's the perfect finesse combo I envisioned!
Megabass HIT a home run with the new Orochi XX without doubling up the price for all the upgrades! 
WOW!! Get one!

Received my new Megabass Orochi XX Bass Rod today from TackleDirect. By far it exceeds my expectations. Very clean...no flaws anywhere on it and the rod protector it came with is professional grade. Will be matching it with a Shimano Curado DC X. Can't wait to get it out for a test. TACKLEDIRECT shipped it in a very sturdy box and hand wrapped. Get one..its sweet! Thanks TD!
