Weight Reduction, Enhanced Sensitivity, and Increased Strength
Ota Garages design philosophy is woven into the materials and shapes of each individual component, creating a perfect balance between reduced weight, heightened sensitivity, and increased strength.
As a result, the reel transmits even the most subtle information from the line all the way to the handle knob without delay or loss.
You can experience the highest level of sensitivity ever achieved in the Blue Heaven series.
Parts made from Grade 5 titanium (Ti-6Al-4V alloy)The Grade 5 titanium alloy (64 titanium) used in OTA Garage models is a highly difficult material to machine and extremely expensive, which is why it is rarely used in fishing reels.
However, at OGM, we make no compromisesthis premium material is generously used in the handle shaft, spool shaft, and handle rivet, delivering outstanding weight reduction, enhanced sensitivity, and superior strength.
Titanium is also used for the reel foot and handle bolts, further contributing to the reel’s exceptional performance and durability.Lightweight Cutout FrameThe palming side of the frame has been boldly cut back, thanks to a newly designed bridge structure that enhances overall strength.
Since slow-pitch jigging often involves palming the reel with bare hands, we tested multiple cutout patterns to create a design that minimizes discomfort and stress during use.
This avant-garde frame design not only achieves significant weight reduction but also delivers a noticeable improvement in sensitivityclearly distinguishing it from its predecessor.Full Carbon Arm with Carbon Cap Cork KnobThe L80 features a 6mm thick carbon material made in Japan, while the L50/30 models have been upgraded with carbon ranging from 24T to 36T. As a result, the arm alone offers approximately 1.8 times greater sensitivity compared to aluminum materials.
Additionally, the handle knob is made from cork, which is lighter and more sensitive than EVA material.
The combination of carbon and cork makes for the ultimate handle system for slow-pitch jigging.Stainless Steel GearThe standard Blue Heaven features a drive gear made from high-strength brass, chosen for its balance of durability and quiet operation. However, OGM has opted for stainless steel with a higher material hardness in pursuit of even greater sensitivity.Reel Design
By varying the edge treatment of the drag lever’s range of motion, the angler can easily feel the position of the lever with their fingers, allowing for quick, no-look adjustments to the drag lever.
for Enhanced PerformanceThe cork washer, which typically has a rough surface texture, has been specially compressed to create a smooth finish.
In slow-pitch jigging, where 1-3kg drag is commonly used, this modification reduces the common issue of stick-slip at low tension that cork washers often experience.
However, if you regularly use high-tension drag, we recommend replacing it with a rubber cork washer of the same size.AE Cork KnobThe AE (AIR EGG) knob, which has become the benchmark design for slow-pitch jigging, is now equipped with high-quality, 4A-grade natural cork. Additionally, the front and rear caps are made from carbon material to further enhance sensitivity.
The AE100 knob is installed on the L80, the AE85 on the L50 S2T model, the AE100 on the PSG model, and the AE85 on the L30.Lever Brake SystemThe control of the jig’s fall speed is a secret technique used by top anglers.
The range of motion between the FREE position and the MIN position has been expanded compared to the standard model. With a special cam setting, it allows for precise brake control just before the MIN position, where the drag washer and disc make contact.
