The “light game” fishing pursued by Soare involves using light tacklespecifically PE line rated #0.8 or lighterto target a wide variety of species. The potential catch extends far beyond just rockfish and horse mackerel, and the fishing methods are equally diverse.

The key lies in deciding which rigs and fishing styles you wish to enjoy, and then selecting the rod best suited to that style.
The Soare Xtune has been reborn through the use of cutting-edge technologies and materials, while retaining the impressive features that defined its predecessorssuch as Spiral-X Core, Hi-Power X, Bridge-like Sheet, and the Carbon Monocoque Grip.

It boasts a dramatic leap in performance driven by the new “X-Guide Micro” system and a lineup of tubular models that deliver an overwhelming amount of sensory feedback. We invite you to experience the impact of a rod that is forging the future of light game fishing.

The rods are equipped with the new “X-Guide Micro” system, a crucial component that dictates overall performance.
The “X-Guide Micro” is a lightweight-focused evolution of the robust, lightweight “X-Guide 3D Titanium” (designed to minimize line slack). Compared to the “X-Guide 3D Titanium” of the same size, it achieves a 40% reduction in weight and an 8% increase in inner diameter.

The significant reduction in guide weight makes the rod feel incredibly light to cast, ensuring a smooth, rapid recovery after the swing. This design enhances sensitivity without hindering the rod’s inherent performance.
The increased inner diameter ensures outstanding line release despite the guide’s compact size; this reduces line tangles and improves the handling of lightweight rigs.

The “X-Guide Micro”which stunned the testers who participated in comparative trialsis set to transform the world of light saltwater fishing.
Light saltwater fishing rods come with either solid or tubular tips; while anglers often gravitate toward solid tips when choosing a single rod, solid tips are not a universal solution. Each type has its own merits and drawbacks, making it essential to understand their unique characteristics and use them appropriately.

The Soare Xtune lineup includes tubular models designed not only for “Mebaring” (rockfish fishing) tapers but also for “Ajing” (horse mackerel fishing) tapers. You can select the ideal rod to match the specific field conditions and the rig you intend to use.

The greatest advantage of using a tubular-tip rod for light saltwater fishing lies in the sheer volume of information it conveys. Success often hinges on the “battle for information” leading up to a fish’s bite, and this is where the rod truly proves its worth.
When tackling an unfamiliar fishing spot, a tubular rod excels at detecting water depth, bottom topography and composition, tidal flow, and signs of fish activity, making it an excellent choice for use as a “pilot rod” to scout the area.

Opting for a tubular rodwhether targeting deep-water zones or boat-based “Ajing” (horse mackerel fishing)broadens your strategic options and unlocks new possibilities in light-game fishing.
