Two variants. One thing in common: precision and raw topwater performance.
The Master VIP 8'3" is a special rod developed for topwater fishing for GT and Yellow Fin. The series is available in two versions, both with 1½-piece construction :
– One model is optimized for pencil baits (softer tip, for better movement)
– The second one for poppers (stiffer top, for more response and control)
These rods offer long casts, explosive contact and perfect control with bait on the surface. They handle PE 4-8 and poppers/pencils up to 180g. Top quality blanks, perfectly balanced grips and high lifting capacity make this a top series for tropical adventures.
Highlights:
-
8'3" length for long casts and wave control
-
Separate model for pencil and for popper – maximum control over each technique
-
Precise 1½-piece construction – short handle section for easy transport
-
Low weight and high lifting force – PE 4–8 with up to 33 kg in 60° test
-
Fuji components and premium build quality

Both rods are 8 feet 3 inches
-
The Pencil variant has a softer tip – perfect for subtle movements
