Reimagined with more power and a medium-fast taper, the LEVIATHAN takes big-bait angling to new dimensions. Drawing from the kabt’s wellspring of power, the metal microfiber-reinforced blank launches heavyweights like the I-SLIDE 262T and MAGDRAFT 10in with greater distance and ease.
Redesigned taper extends LEVIATHAN’s bend-curve under full load, improving landing-ratios by better absorbing and controlling the surging runs and heart-stopping head shakes of double-digit monsters. Double-footed and double-wrapped Fuji Stainless SiC guides are carefully configured to distribute load evenly and smoothly, ensuring that when your monster bite comes, every inch of the LEVIATHAN will bring the fight to your trophy. Extended grip length improves the ergonomics of two-handed casting and tucks securely underarm for stability when retrieving high-resistance lures, while also providing much-needed leverage when fighting that fish of a lifetime.

- kabt (p. ‘kabutoh’): The astonishing tensile strength and tenacious resilience of the kabt‘s shape-memory metal microfibers are woven into a layered, multi-axis arrangement that reinforces the butt-section of each blank, delivering a superior power-to-weight ratio and more decisive lifting-power and control.
- Multi-tonnage construction: Each blank utilizes low-resin carbon of varying tonnage. By matching the desired bend-characteristics of each point to the ideal tonnage, each blank is able to realize ever-greater potential—which translates into silky-smooth load transfer across all taper-types for intuitive cast and feel.
- Spiral Architect Reel Seat: A Megabass-original designed for low-profile ergonomics, maximum blank exposure, structural integrity, and efficient grip-shifts when moving from casting to palming.
- Micro-Pitch Taping: Un-sanded finishing tape features higher wrapping-density for increased durability and blank crispness.

Everything You would expect from Megabass
July 18, 2022
Another fantastic Megabass rod. Like most of their mid to high end rods, it has a remarkably soft, parabolic tip, making this rod more versatile than its power rating would suggest. like all MB rods, the Orochi line is simply gorgeous, with immaculate fit and finish. The EMTF is the 4th Orochi in my lineup and I am happy with all four.
Pros
- Beautiful, functional and as good as advertised.
Cons
- Relatively expensive. If it is out of your price range, the Levante line has the same models and they perform similarly (although the lower modulus graphite in the Levente line tens to make them a bit slower and softer than their Orochi counterparts)

Cracker of a rod

For the price I don’t think you can beat the Orochi Whipsnake. Cast light lures a mile and is extremely sensitive. Great rod at a good mid level price point. Excellent service as well. Very happy with my purchase

Awesome megabass quality, however…
June 11, 2022
Awesome megabass quality and amazing rod. However I can’t give it 5 stars, it doesn’t come with a hook keeper! I understand some high end rods don’t have a hook keeper but it’s wild to me… either way great rod.
Cons
- No hook keeper

Fantastic rod! Rod is a lot more versatile than I thought it would be. The tip allows this rod to do things that other rods with this power rating could not.

Mindblown!
May 19, 2021
This was my first Megabass rod, and it blew my expectations! I fish the 6'11" Whipsnake for general purpose finesse, and it truly excels for Ned rigs, weightless flukes, and tubes; it's built for more than dropshots! I can also feel the fish taking my bait 30+ yard away, even on slack line whether the bait suspends, sinks, or sits on the bottom! It's crisp and light, but has a sturdy enough backbone to subdue large smallmouths in strong currents and big drag-smoking trouts! I got mine paired with a Certate 2500LT and 10 lb. Fireline Ultra 8 w/ 6 lb. Super FC Sniper leader, and it's the perfect finesse combo I envisioned!
Megabass HIT a home run with the new Orochi XX without doubling up the price for all the upgrades!

Pros
- JDM aesthetics, versatile, light, and crispy & sensitive
Cons
- The price may not be accessible for everyone, but not bad for a high-end Megabass rod!

I'm a huge Megabass fan and this rod does not disappoint ! Ordered the perfect Pitch and this thing is sensitive, crisp and loaded with power. Used mostly for pitching jigs and tubes, works great for frogs also. Love it!!
