TSURINOYA HACKER II Long Casting Lure Rod | Carbon Fibre FUJI Components

The TSURINOYA HACKER II is a two-piece carbon fibre lure rod series designed for long casting and responsive lure fishing. Available in Light, Medium-Light and Medium power configurations with lengths from 2.07m to 2.25m, the range provides options for lighter finesse presentations through to more general-purpose lure fishing.

The updated HACKER II construction uses X-cross carbon reinforcement together with FUJI guides and a FUJI reel seat. A 3A cork handle and hand-focused balance complete the rod's lightweight configuration.

HACKER II Model Options

The supplied listing identifies the following primary HACKER II configurations:

The supplier specifications also reference a 2.07m length option. Check the selected variant for its exact model, power, action and length.

X-Cross Carbon Construction

The HACKER II uses an unpolished X-cross carbon construction, with crossed carbon reinforcement incorporated into the blank.

The design is intended to maintain rod strength while keeping overall blank weight down and providing the responsiveness required for lure fishing.

FUJI Guide System

The rod incorporates FUJI components throughout the guide system, including:

• FUJI A-series guide rings
• FUJI K-series guide frames
• Anti-tangle guide arrangement

Depending on the selected rod configuration, the supplier lists guide counts of 7+1, 8+1 or 9+1.

FUJI Reel Seat

A FUJI reel seat secures the reel to the rod and forms part of the HACKER II's lightweight component configuration.

3A Cork Handle

The rod uses a 3A-grade cork handle with the rod's centre of gravity positioned closer to the hand. This configuration is intended to improve balance and handling during repeated casting and lure retrieval.

Two-Piece Construction

The HACKER II uses a two-section design, providing a more manageable transport length than an equivalent one-piece rod.

The supplier states that the joint and blank design have been developed to maintain a smooth bending curve through the assembled rod.

Suitable Fishing Applications

Depending on the selected HACKER II model, reel, line and lure combination, the range can be used for:

• Bream
• Flathead
• Tailor
• Trout
• Bass
• Redfin
• Estuary lure fishing
• River and lake fishing
• Shore-based lure casting
• Soft plastics
• Hardbody lures
• Minnows and jerkbaits
• Surface lures
• Long-distance lure casting
• General freshwater and light saltwater lure fishing

The Light (L) configuration is better suited to lighter lure presentations, while the Medium-Light (ML) provides an intermediate option. The Medium (M) configuration provides additional power for larger lures and heavier lure-fishing setups.

Please Note

The HACKER II is available in several configurations, and specifications including length, power, action and guide count vary between models. Check the selected variant before ordering where a particular specification is required.

The supplier lists 2.07m, 2.18m and 2.25m overall lengths, while the model names specifically supplied in the product title are 732L, 732ML and 752M. The exact configuration of the additional 2.07m option has not been provided and has therefore not been inferred.

The supplier also provides a general 6–10lb fishing power specification, but does not clearly map this rating to each individual L, ML and M model. Individual model ratings should therefore be checked against the selected variant rather than assuming that 6–10lb applies identically across the entire range.
