Tenryu Injection SP 76 MH

At Gerrys Fishing, we often describe the Tenryu Injection SP 76 MH as the Swiss Army Knife of the legendary Red Rod family. While its longer brothers are built for massive distance on open beaches, the 7 6 Injection is all about precision, speed, and versatility. It is a rod designed for the angler who refuses to be pigeonholedmoving seamlessly from technical soft plastic work to aggressive topwater sessions without missing a beat.

Measuring 2.29m (7 6) with a sweet-spot casting range of 14-35g, this rod is a master of nervous energy. The blank is a high-performance blend of 87% carbon and 13% glass fibre. That 13% glass is the secret to the Injection ranges longevity; it provides a level of mechanical resistance that allows the rod to absorb the violent head-shakes of a trophy Bass while the high carbon content ensures the blank remains crisp, responsive, and incredibly fast.

Technical Precision: The Nervous Blank

The SP 76 MH is defined by its fast action. It is a responsive rod in every sense of the word. When you are prospecting with a soft lurewhether on a straight retrieve or bouncing off the bottomthe sensitivity through the Fuji K SIC guides is almost electric. Youll feel the difference between weed, sand, and the subtlest pluck from a fish. Despite its shorter stature compared to the 8 2 models, the blanks recovery speed is so high that it punches lures out to distances that will surprise you, all while remaining completely fatigue-free when working stickbaits and poppers for hours on end.

Technical Specifications

Examples of Where to Use

• Boat & Kayak Angling: The 7 6 length is the perfect all-rounder for boat work. It is long enough to cast away from the hull but short enough to handle fish at the side of the craft without high-sticking.

• Tight Estuary Creeks: When you are navigating underhanging trees or fishing narrow gullies, the nimbleness of the 76 MH allows for snap casts and precision accuracy that longer rods cant match.

• Topwater Sessions: This rod is a dream for walking the dog. The fast action and shorter length mean your wrist doesnt have to work nearly as hard to animate stickbaits like the Patchinko 125 or IMA Skimmer.

• Wreck & Reef Shadding: Use it for diagonal shadding with 20-30g jig heads. The reserve of power in the butt section is more than enough to stop a hard-fighting Pollack or Bass from diving back into the structure.

Gerrys Pro Tip

The SP 76 MH is a technical anglers dream. Because the blank is so nervous and fast, you dont need to use big, sweeping movements to animate your lures. Tiny, sharp twitches of the wrist are all it takes. My top setup advice? Pair this rod with a 3000-sized reel and a high-quality 1.0 or 1.2 PE braid. This keeps the balance point right at your hand, making the rod feel like an extension of your arm. If youre fishing clear water, that 13% glass content in the blank provides enough cushion that you can safely drop down to a lighter fluorocarbon leader than you might usually risk!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 7 6 too short for shore fishing?

Not at all. While you might lose a few yards compared to a 9ft rod, the trade-off is much better lure control and accuracy. On many UK marksespecially estuaries, piers, and rock ledgesthe 76 MH is actually more effective because you can put your lure exactly where the fish are holding.

What is the benefit of the SIC guides?

SIC (Silicon Carbide) is one of the hardest and smoothest materials used in rod guides. It dissipates heat incredibly well, which protects your braided line during long, fast runs from powerful fish. The stainless steel frames ensure they are rugged enough for the harsh saltwater environment.

How does the Reserve of Power work?

Like all Tenryu Injections, the rod features a progressive taper. The tip is sensitive and fast for lure work, but as the rod bends deeper under the weight of a fish, it hits a very stiff, powerful butt section. This is what allows a medium power rod to handle heavy power fish.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes. When you buy a Tenryu from Gerrys Fishing, you are covered by a Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects for the original owner. It is a rod built to last a lifetime of hard use.
