Hybrid Innovation for Mid-Strolling and Scoping

A Unique Design for Slack-Line Presentations

The MS 674-1 Pro Stroll was specifically developed to excel at the Mid-Strolling technique, where a soft plastic is presented through the water column to entice suspended fish. Its hybrid construction features a deep red Zentron fiberglass tip that delivers the flexibility needed to generate subtle rod-tip vibrations without applying excessive line tension. This allows the lure to swim with an incredibly natural and fluid action capable of triggering even the most inactive predators. Combined with the legendary sensitivity of Gary Loomis' X-Ray carbon throughout the rest of the blank, it provides outstanding bite detection and lure control despite the soft tip.

Outstanding Versatility for Tenya and Saltwater Bream

Although originally designed for bass fishing, this blank is also an outstanding choice for Tenya fishing and Madai/Kabura techniques in saltwater. Its soft fiberglass tip allows seabream to inhale the bait naturally without feeling immediate resistance, significantly improving hook-up rates on cautious fish. Meanwhile, the powerful X-Ray carbon butt section provides the backbone needed for solid hooksets and confident control when fighting hard-pulling fish in deep water.
