The Akios FURY FX435 SRS TT Twin Tipped Continental Rod
The Akios Fury FX435 SRS TT Twin Tip is a highly versatile and innovative continental-style surfcasting rod designed to provide anglers with a single solution for a wide range of fishing situations. Its defining feature is the “Twin Tip” system, which allows the angler to switch between a powerful tubular tip and a sensitive hybrid tip, depending on the fishing conditions.
The rod’s core purpose is to offer ultimate versatility. The powerful tubular tip is perfect for fishing in demanding conditions where maximum casting distance and power are required. It excels when casting heavy baits into a strong headwind or powerful tides, and it provides the backbone needed to lift and control big fish in rough ground. In contrast, the hybrid tip transforms the rod into a precision tool for light-line fishing. It offers exceptional sensitivity and bite detection, making it ideal for targeting shy-feeding species like flatfish on clean beaches or for match fishing where every bite counts.
The rod blank is constructed from a high-modulus HMX 40T carbon, a material known for its strength, lightness, and responsiveness. This advanced carbon allows the rod to store and release a huge amount of energy during the cast, resulting in impressive distances. The rod’s action is progressive, providing a smooth load-up during the cast and a powerful recovery that helps to propel the rig with great speed.
The “Twin Tip” system is the rod’s main innovation. The two interchangeable tips are supplied with the rod and can be quickly and easily swapped out. The tubular tip is stiffer and more powerful, offering a direct feel and more backbone for punching out heavy leads and dealing with rough conditions. The hybrid tip is a solid carbon tip spliced into the blank, which provides superior flexibility and sensitivity. It is visually sensitive and will register the most delicate of bites, making it perfect for subtle fishing scenarios.
In terms of components, the rod is fitted with premium hardware to match its high-performance blank. It features The “K-series” frames are a modern anti-tangle design that helps to prevent line wrap and wind knots, a crucial feature for long-distance casting. The guides are configured to be suitable for both fixed spool and multiplier reels. The rod also includes a sliding Fuji DPS screw lock reel seat (SRS), which allows the angler to position their reel exactly where they want it on the butt section for maximum comfort and casting efficiency.
For added durability, the spigot joints are reinforced with metal bands. The butt section has an ergonomic EVA grip for a comfortable and secure hold during the cast and the fight. The rod is a three-piece design, which makes it easy to transport and store, and it comes supplied with a hard cordura carry tube for ultimate protection.
The Akios Fury FX435 SRS TT offers a high level of performance across the board. The tubular tip provides a powerful casting action, while the hybrid tip allows for the finesse and bite detection required for delicate fishing. This two-in-one design makes it a versatile tool for any angler’s arsenal, eliminating the need to carry two separate rods to cover different fishing styles.
