Pro Tip

When surface fishing or stalking wary carp in crystal-clear marginal margins with a 2.75lb rod, keep your line off the water as much as possible and set your clutch slightly softer than usual. The forgiving tip action will cushion sudden, explosive lunges right under your rod tip, preventing hook pulls on light lines and small hooks.

Examples of Where to Use & Storage

• Intimate Estate Lakes & Ponds: The absolute perfect tool for smaller, traditional venues where heavy leads and extreme distances are completely unnecessary.

• Stalking & Marginal Hunting: Ideal for creeping into tight, overgrown swims to drop a bait right under the noses of cruising fish.

• Small Rivers & Canals: Highly maneuverable along narrow towpaths and heavily vegetated banks when targeting river carp, chub, or barbel.

• Surface & Floater Fishing: The lighter test curve and shorter length provide the ideal action for flicking out controller floats and absorbing sudden surface strikes.
