The total weight of my Accura 95 H Type R is 351 g compared to 368 g of the Accura 100 H Type R. The 17 g weight reduction split to - 10 g (59 %) off the rear part and - 7 g (41 %) to the tip part compared to the 100 H. As I say the main weight reduction comes from the shorter overall length, but I find it quite interesting although the rear section is stronger it seems there is not significantly more material inside. Weight reduction of 17 g (4,6 %) as well as the shorter length (18 cm) make the Accura 95 H so convenient to handle.
Thanks bro - yes I took my time for a reason. I wanted to test it properly and build my opinion to give you my proper experience rather than talking about catalog information of the Accura 95 H. Tight lines bro!
Nice review Max, thank you for it!! It would be nice to test it and feel the difference between 100H and 95H. Especially, I'm interested in a long fights, as you said in a video, that you can put more pressure to the fish, but aslo vice versa, fish can and will do it to an angler. Maybe I'm wrong, but I believe 100H provides maybe more maneuvering space, from lure weight range to better absorbing pressure from the fight.
@@hrvojegezin4869 thanks for your feedback bro. I'm also keen to fight a big fish with Accura 95 H especially the behaviour of the short blank and the power it provides during the fight. In my review of Accura 100 H I have footage of a fight with a big Amberjack. The rod is bending a lot and I was quite satisfied with that action! Can't wait to see it on the 95 H. 🙌 Greetings Max
Wow . What a rod. I love Zenaq but i never had 1 cause they' re a bit expensive for me. So i use Tailwalk, half the price & I can assure you they' re very powerful.
Hey Gordon, absolutely right they are super expensive here (not in JP but here they are). I got my first one when I visited Japan then I was hooked on Zenaqs blanks! It might be that Tailwalk is powerful but you will never find the performance a Zenaq Blank will provide you, and speaking for Shore Jigging it's the blank performance is crucial. I like to compare Shore Jigging with Fly Fishing, similar necessity of blank performance. Greetings Max
Max you are the best thank you for this video finally i feel safe with my choice because i wait this beaty and about 15 of september i ll have it . waiting forward for new videos for you thank you for your effort
Great review Max.I realy dont like the new reel holder and ring made from cheap looking plastic.Few issues are allready posted in Zenag Angler page in Facebook.I prefer to stay with my old Acurra H RG.All the time you reccomended to use PE3 braid.Is this so important?I use PE4 braid line with 0.70mm flourocarbon leader for targeting big fish like amberjacks,tuna and swordfish in Greece without any casting or another problems.For smaller fishes i use Sonio 100m RG with PE2.5 and 0.60mm flouro.Please will be very interesting to me to hear your poin of view.Thanks and keep doing mire exiting videos.
Thank you very much Nikolay! Regarding the new Hexagon Reel Seat - have you ever fished it? I fish it for two years straight now on Accura 100 H Typer and 95 H Type R and I love it! As I say in my videos I think its a huge improvement compared to the old one and I never had a problem although I caught big fish. The problem you mentioned (I saw it too) occurred with one rod on the Spinning Hexagon Reel Seat, not with the one on Zenaq Shore Jigging Rods. Regarding the braid and leader. My suggestion for PE3 braid is more because of a technically background. PE Braid floats so it effects on sinking rate as well on movement of the jig, the thicker diameter is also affecting your cast and the line gets easier taken from wind and current. Briefly said I try to fish as thin as possible, at least when we talk about jigs. Zenaq Sonio with PE 2,5 braid is perfect! Swordfish 🤔 that sounds like a deep spot. Maybe the 95 H is interesting for you. 😅 Greetings and tight lines! Max
Many thanks Max for these great reviews; they are really helpful since it is not usually possible to test those hight end rods at most stores!. I have just bought a Sonio 93 (partly thanks to your video comparing it with the Sonio 100, another contender I had i mind) having in mind pencils and jigs up to 80gr and it seems it would be a great pair together with this 95H. In fact you mention the 95H would complement the Accura 100H from a pure jigging perspective, but as I do more of lure fishing than jigging I have the impression the Sonio 93 and this 95H would even be a better combo. What do you think? Btw, I do my fishing in Tenerife, Canary Islands, but species and shore tophography is similar to that of yours :)
Hi Petro, I'm happy to hear that my review helped you choosing the right zenaq rod for your fishing purposes. As for your question, I think Sonio 93 M and Accura 95 H are a great pair. Sonio 93 M covers all the lighter lures as the Accura 95 H is for the heavy game and big fish. Tight lines Max
For me, zenaq is the best company for shore jigging rods, but many people are not satisfied with the new reel holders because they break. I would like you to make a comment on the subject
Hi George, I haven't seen any damages on heavy hexagon reel seats till now! Speaking for me I fish the Hexagon Seat for 2 years straight now and I never had a single problem. They work perfect on 100H and 95 H and I wouldn't change it back to the old one.
@@gregmarg9682 I really like to fish the 95H when I know I will fish deeper places (30 m +) and Jigs 100g + for more shallow spots ~ 25 - 35 m where I fish mainly 80g - 100g I like to use 100 H. Greetings Max
Hey, good video as usual 💪🏻, Would this 95h be comparable to the Duro 100h (not the pencil model), which is supposedly more rigid than the Accura 100h? Thanks
I had Duro 100H and accura 100H and now waiting my 95H to come.This 95H feels like a short Duro 100H in action than an accura 100H.The tip is quite fast.I feel that Duro 100H is a bit more firm than 95H but i will test soon myself.I hope this helped you
@@shorejiggerchris3364 thanks for your feedback, do you think we could compare the Duro 100h to the acurra 100hh? where the 100hh is much stiffer than the Duro? thanks

@@gordonfalzon858 that's right Gordon! Depending on the lure and technique the casting range varies even with one rod. Every fishing rod has it's "sweet spot" so at the end I end up often with 2-3 rods 😅 Tight lines bro! 🙋♂️
@@maxdocken I've plan to use metal jig like your. I've been using bucktail forever. This is going to be my first learning how to use metal jig. What is the long guess jig you ever use? And how would you use know that the jig can be used from the boat or inshore?
@@vsonic86 it's a good idea for a video. Generally, shore jigs have often the same "knife style" as fast jigging boat jigs but are lighter. From Shore it's common to use jigs from 60g - 120g, boat jigs (slim style) are most of the time heavier 150g +. Slow jigs which are often used from a boat are not recommended to use from shore with standard shore jigging technique. So the difference between boat and shore jigs is the shape and or the weight.
