Truth White insight 7210 (standard black model )
Suitable for casting games of bluefin tuna and large yellowfin tuna in the Tsugaru Strait.
Compatible with PE10.
Suitable for bluefin tuna over 100kg.
Recommended for those who are trying to catch bluefin tuna in the Tsugaru Strait for the first time, and for small people. A short length model with less burden.
Suitable for lures used in sardine patterns and large dolphin fish patterns.
With a tone that can withstand long, high-load fights and bat power that can keep putting pressure on the circling bluefin tuna and lifting it firmly.
Spec
Length: 7ft2inch (2m19cm)
Weight: 391g (#1: 163g #2 grip: 228g)
Pe: 8 - 10
Lure: 60 - 250g
Guide: PMNST16-PMNSG40
Two types with different power (No1 / No2 (No1 has been strengthened overall)) were produced from the first prototype, and actual fishing began.
Regarding the guide settings, with the cooperation of the people involved, we repeatedly cast various lures in the Tokara Islands, bluefin tuna in the Tsugaru Strait, overseas fields, etc., and after making only small changes, we were able to come up with a satisfactory setting
. The guide settings were designed to take advantage of both the PE10 and the large-diameter spool to reduce line thrashing, and the guide settings to make the most of the lift power.
Initially, we were using a concept of line compatible with 12, but after repeatedly fighting sharks and GTs with a live horse mackerel, we realized that the power balance of PE12 was a little light for both blanks.
However, the casting performance of various lures, the bending, strength, and lightness of the blank that continues to put pressure on the target with the least burden on the angler, and the overall balance, it was a model with the high level of completion that we were looking for.
After fighting with various fish, we were convinced that the PE10 tension is suitable for this 72 length and this tone.
We tested this 72 model with PE10.
During a fishing trip to Yonaguni in January 2020, we caught two marlin with No1 and one with No2.
Although there are some differences from fighting with bluefin tuna, it was an excellent test subject for checking the blank condition, such as the load on the angler and lift power. The thorough differences between No1 and No2 were also revealed.
(See the video link below.)
Including these points, we have reaffirmed that No2 has a good balance in various ways with PE10, and have decided to proceed with it as a release model.
● Regarding the fighting style
The WhiteInsight 7210 is a model that targets bluefin tuna and large yellowfin tuna, and the fighting time can last several hours. Moreover, it is a model that can handle PE10 high drag, so the angler needs to conserve his physical strength, and the fighting style is different from other models. The OceanSprinter 8110
, which is in the same PE class, feels like you are lowering your hips and lifting up by bending and stretching your legs without standing the rod too high. If you have strength and weight, you can use the lifting power of the rod with just your arms. The position of the waist belt where you insert the rod end is located just above the crotch. However, the fight time is limited to around 15 minutes. (This model is suitable for GT and yellowtail that will win in one go.)
On the other hand, the biggest advantage of the WhiteInsight7210 is that it reduces the consumption of arm strength, back strength, and grip strength by bending the rod upright and placing the fulcrum in front of you, and releasing the load on the rod to the rod end. (See the first to eighth images below. Or watch the YouTube video of Yonaguni.)
When the rod is upright, the load is concentrated on the rod end, and the load is placed on the waist belt through the rod belt. For this reason, a rod belt that hangs from the waist belt (a Souls product was used during testing) is necessary. This leads
to a decrease in back strength and leg strength, so hold the rod lightly without lowering your waist more than necessary. If your grip strength decreases, you should hold the rod with your elbow, or remove the rod end from the belt and take a break with your armpits bent.
It's a long, fierce fight that you don't know when it will end, so it's best to approach it as if you were running a long distance. (This is a fighting style that is also suitable for WhiteInsight8010.)
(GT and yellowtail are short-distance races that decide the outcome in one go. OceanSprinter838/8110/711RS/7510NL)
Note: Although the rod is made of carbon material that is stronger than the OceanSprinter series in terms of breaking strength, the rod can still be damaged if handled incorrectly. In particular, if the tuna turns widely and goes under the boat, which is likely to happen just before landing, do not keep the rod upright, but remove the rod end from the belt and change the side to deal with it.
Regarding the gimbal belt:
In the test, we used one made by Souls.
We also use TT BELT from MC Works. In that case, we change it to a hanging type from the waist in combination with SANSUI's original Super Urethane Back Saver Belt SW (waist belt).
In any case, please use a strong and reliable gimbal belt that is large enough to cover both legs.
The PE12 compatible model is being developed with a shorter length, and has already moved from Proto No. 1 to No. 2 (April 2021).
Actual fishing tests have been conducted since spring 2020. Released as WhiteInsight 61112 (2022).
In addition, we have developed and released the WhiteInsight 7610, which has improved the long-distance casting ability required for luring PE10 compatible fish and has an additional 20% increase in power, making it recommended for anglers who are used to fighting. (July 2021)

About Tsugaru Strait compatible models
WhiteInsight7210 For those tuna fishing in the strait for the first time, small anglers, small boats
WhiteInsight7610 For anglers who are used to fighting, also suitable for size 12 (in this case, be careful not to tie directly below and use straight fights frequently)
WhiteInsight61112 It is possible to take on a higher load than the 7610 and has a higher breaking strength, but because it is a one-piece structure, the lift power is inferior to the 7610, but the physical burden is less.
*The 7210/7610 can also handle size 12, but when it is directly below or goes under the boat, you should use side grips to fight straight. Of course, when the 61112 goes under the boat, you should also use side grips. We have also tried
and tested the 7210 and bait casting models and have rod setting data.
As shown in the image below, we have caught several small-class tuna, GT and yellowtail, but the line capacity and drag performance of the bait reel used in the test cannot be said to be able to handle bluefin tuna over 100 kg. We will need to choose a new reel, which will be a challenge for the future.
*When it comes to GT casting and yellowtail casting, there are some effective points such as casting and operating large lures and high drag pressure with a short rod.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who cooperated with the test development.
*The 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th images below are the No.1 blank (a little lighter).
The rest are the release model No.2 blanks.
(I also use this 7210 for GT casting. It is easy to cast and operate large lures, and when you hit it, you can apply high pressure and catch it easily. Since it is a tuna rod, please think of it as one way of using it.)
