The Maxel Risky Player 60 Series rod (model 60-5) is a model of Japanese technology, made from Toray Hybrid Tubelor Structure Carbon blanks that provide an extremely lightweight yet incredibly powerful body. It is equipped with top-quality Fuji Torzite Titanium guides, which are exceptionally thin, durable, and 40% lighter than traditional SIC, drastically reducing line friction during use. The rod’s total weight is only 149 g, ensuring fatigue-free fishing. The ergonomic hard EVA handle and durable Fuji reel seat provide a comfortable grip and absolute stability during the fight.

Designed specifically for the demanding technique of slow jigging, the 60-5 model has a length of 6" (1.83 m) and the distinctive code 0117088. It is suitable for use with lines in the PE 1.5–3.0 category and handles jigs weighing 150–350 g with absolute precision. Its construction allows the jig to be presented in a high arc, delivering a natural and enticing action that triggers predator strikes. At the same time, it is ideal for use with High Speed Ratio reels when applying the Half Pitch technique, offering excellent line control even in strong current conditions.
