About this piece
The Smith Offshore Stick GTK GTK-70SJH is a surface jerking rod designed specifically for targeting amberjack in the offshore waters of the Boso Peninsula. It features a tip that is intentionally softened to prevent the lure from jumping out of the water and missing bites, while maintaining strong power in the mid and butt sections. Double-wrapped Ocean Guides and a slim, high-holding EVA grip enhance casting distance and control.
