Megabass Orochi Spinning Rods
Since their debut in 2013, the Megabass Orochi XX series has represented the intersection between Japanese rod technology and North American bass fishing. Now, through painstaking refinement and extensive field-testing, the next chapter in the Orochi saga is set to begin with the introduction of the Megabass Orochi XX Spinning Rods.
Carefully redesigned to deliver clear performance gains – all while staying true to the core characteristics of their predecessors, the Megabass Orochi XX Spinning Rods employ advanced X47-ASL Metal Fiber Blanks (“kabt”) materials to achieve greater lifting power, torque, lightness, and crispness. Replacing the first generation’s old carbon wrap, the Megabass Orochi XX Spinning Rods feature kabt’s metal microfiber material woven into a layered, multi-axis arrangement to deliver a superior power to weight ratio and more decisive control.
Undergoing subtle refinements to balance points in response to a lighter overall weight, the Megabass Orochi Spinning Rods employ Fuji SiC guides that have been precisely placed to highlight the unique properties of each model. Fitted with Megabass’ Spiral Architecture Reel Seats for seamless connection and improved ergonomics, the Megabass Orochi XX Spinning Rods embody Megabass’ unflinching commitment to the American angler.
Rod Description:
While the utilization of carbon graphite represented a revolution in rod building technology, the pace of graphite material evolution is not without constraints. In fact, much recent innovation has been driven not by blank material, but by advancements such as multi-axis technology. Against this backdrop, the Megabass design team embarked upon PROJECT KAIZA with a simple directive: explore new materials to further the evolution of blank performance.
Out of this research was born kabt, a material and build process that results in a lighter blank, with higher load-bearing capacity and greater responsiveness. Leveraging the unique characteristics of next-generation microfibers with ASL shape-memory metal alloy, kabtstrengthens the load-bearing mid and butt section of the blank without requiring the use of excessive amounts of carbon graphite. To achieve this remarkable strength, three ASL multi-axis metal fiber layers are laid at 47-degree angles in a triple-layer pattern, which results in the “xXx” pattern from which the OROCHI xXx (OROCHI “KAIZA”) derives its name.
The result is a lighter, stronger blank, which successfully blends the sensitivity and performance of a carbon graphite tip section with the kabt’s ASL metal fibers, delivering the power of a heavyweight hitter packed in a featherweight’s frame. Harness the power of the unknown. Harness OROCHI “KAIZA”

F4-68XXS "Ronin": Developed for Jerkbaits Like the X-80 Trick Darter and Vision Oneten Series, the Orochi Xx Ronin Preserves the Bend Characteristics and Ergonomic Advantages of the Original, While Improving the Recovery Rate of the Blank. Understanding the Importance of Managing Slack Line Throughout the Jerkbait’s Cadence, the Ronin’s Blank Exhibits Greater Crispness, Returning to Center-rest With Fewer Oscillations Than Its Predecessor. This Also Allows for More Precise Transmission of Rod Work, Connecting Angler to the Dynamic and Nuanced Action of Megabass Jerkbaits More Fully.
The Ergonomics of a Compact Handle and Tapered Cork Fore Grip Combine to Deliver a Superior Spinning Setup for Jerkbaits, Allowing for Less Wrist Torque When Working Baits With Sharp, Sideways or Downward Snaps of the Rod. In Addition, the Ronin is an Excellent Choice for Pinpoint-casting of Weighted and Weightless Worms, and Its 6’8” Length is Ideal for Dock-skipping Soft Plastics.

At 7’4” With an Extended Rear Grip, the Enforcer is Built for Long Two-handed Casts, and Can Be Tucked Comfortably Under the Arm for Long Dragging Techniques and Increased Leverage Against Monster Smallmouth. Additionally, the Enforcer Excels With the Salt-rich No-sinker Rigs Often Employed in the South. The Added Length of the Rod Allows for Long Casts and Sweeping Hooksets to Quickly Take Up Slack Line, While the Kabt powered Backbone Controls the Fight in-and-around Brush Piles and Submerged Timber.
