The new generation of GLANZ rods embodies more than 20 years of research, innovation and passion dedicated to BIGBAITS fishing. True to ZENAQ's philosophy, the GLANZ are not content merely to be powerful; they are designed to inspire total confidence in any situation.
Power and stiffness are not enough; the GLANZ go further by merging controlled flex and resilience. This unique compromise allows you to handle the heaviest lures with surgical precision while offering optimal control during the fight. Every cast, every presentation, every hookset is carried out in perfect harmony with the angler's movements.
The new GLANZ redefine what rods can achieve in extreme fishing conditions. These rods are not simple tools; they are natural extensions of your will, engineered to face the most powerful predators and the most demanding conditions.
Specifications for reference GB73-X5 Designed as the modern benchmark for fishing 9-inch, 100 g swimbaits, the BLACK OUT brilliantly combines tradition and innovation. Inspired by the emblematic « GLANZ B73 Circular » – a legendary original model still highly sought after – this rod has been entirely rethought to meet current requirements. The BLACK OUT covers a wide weight range, from 30 g to 200 g, and adapts to a large variety of lures: from glide baits and large stickbaits to soft swimbaits and heavy Alabama rigs. Its precise and instantaneous responsiveness attracts fish and offers a linear, tactile connection that allows you to animate your lure with disarming ease. Whether you fish from the shore, while wading, by boat or in the wild, the BLACK OUT adapts perfectly to all environments. This exceptional versatility is the very essence of this rod and what makes it indispensable. Its hybrid guide system is optimized for monofilament and PE lines: it reduces resistance and maximizes casting efficiency with monofilament, while limiting line twists and slack with PE. If you don't know where to start, start here. BLACK OUT is the ideal starting point for anglers new to swimbait fishing, and the preferred choice of experienced anglers, time and time again.
Specifications for reference GB84-X10 Designed exclusively for PE lines, the UTOPIAN BLUSTER rod, a long-range model, revolutionizes shore swimbait fishing in terms of distance and precision. Its blank and guide system are specially engineered for PE lines, offering exceptional casting distance and total control across the entire weight range, from standard 9-inch (23 cm), 100 g lures to massive 300 g swimbaits. Its powerful yet flexible blank allows a deep hookup and propels lures into previously inaccessible zones. Despite its length of 2.54 m, it retains exceptional responsiveness and handling. From glide baits and crankbaits to large surface stickbaits, even long-distance presentations remain precise and responsive. Its exclusive PE guide setup eliminates critical line problems like tangles and bird's nests — common when casting heavy lures with PE — ensuring a smooth, continuous rhythm throughout your session. From vast sea bass fishing areas to distant points targeting bass, barramundi, pike, striped bass, muskellunge and even offshore species, this rod delivers optimal performance for all PE-line swimbait techniques from the shore. The only two-piece, center-cut model in the GLANZ range, it is designed for maximum mobility — ideal for travel by plane, train, or even bicycle. UTOPIAN BLUSTER — The ideal balance between casting distance and lure control, reinvented as a long rod.
