The Ripple Fisher Ultimo is the flagship offshore casting rod series from Ripple Fisher, developed for anglers targeting powerful species such as Giant Trevally (GT) and Kingfish with stickbaits, diving pencils and poppers.
Designed around casting performance, the Ultimo series combines an exceptionally lightweight and well-balanced feel with the powerful butt strength required to stop large fish. Carefully selected carbon materials, premium components and refined guide settings give the blank excellent recovery and resilience, helping generate impressive casting distance while remaining responsive and controlled throughout the fight.
The highly resilient blank loads smoothly under pressure, allowing anglers to maintain consistent pressure on hard-running fish before transitioning into powerful lifting force through the butt section. This combination of lightness, casting performance and fighting power makes the Ripple Fisher Ultimo ideally suited to demanding offshore topwater and boat casting applications.
Premium Fuji SiC-S Titanium Frame K Guides with SiC RV guides provide smooth line management, while details including the anti-stick grip end and premium reel seat components reflect the high-end construction expected from Ripple Fisher's flagship casting range.
Ripple Fisher Ultimo 83M
The Ultimo 83M is the versatile all-round model in the range, balancing casting performance, lure control and fighting power for targeting GT and large Kingfish.
It is designed to comfortably cast and work large diving pencils and poppers, including lures around 240mm. Once loaded under the weight of a fish, the progressive blank bends smoothly and allows the angler to transfer body weight into the rod for efficient lifting power.
The 83M is an excellent choice for GT fishing as well as targeting large Kingfish in shallow water where stopping power is essential.

Ripple Fisher Ultimo 710MH
The Ultimo 710MH is a compact, powerful offshore casting rod designed for anglers who need greater lure versatility and serious stopping power.
Its sharp, responsive blank makes it easy to work large diving pencils, lift sinking stickbaits from deeper water and generate strong surface disturbance with medium-mouth poppers around 260mm.
At 7'10", the shorter length is particularly well suited to casting from the stern of larger boats and charter vessels where space can be limited. Despite its compact and lightweight feel, the powerful butt section develops impressive torque under load, helping anglers take control when fighting large GT and Kingfish.
