Description
The Century Eliminator T1200 14ft 10 is a top-tier surfcasting rod, widely regarded as one of the most powerful and capable beachcasters Century has ever produced. It is the ultimate tool for anglers who face extreme conditions and need to cast heavy weights and large baits at maximum distance. While its incredible power might suggest a stiff, unforgiving rod, it is deceptively smooth and designed to handle a wide range of casting styles.
Core Design and Technology
- Ultimate Power and Control: The T1200’s blank is engineered to handle the most demanding situations, from fishing in powerful tides to casting over rough ground. It’s built to store and release immense amounts of energy, allowing for record-breaking casts without a feeling of harshness.
- Three-Zone Progressive Action: Like all Eliminator rods, the T1200 features a carefully designed three-zone action. The sensitive tip allows for excellent bite detection and cushioning with braided lines. The progressive mid-section provides control during the fight, and the powerful butt section delivers the necessary leverage to move large fish away from snags and kelp.
- Advanced Carbon Construction: The blank is built with Century’s HPR (High Performance Resin) technology and is cured in an autoclave. This process ensures the material is fully consolidated, giving the rod a long life and consistent performance without the risk of “test curve decay.”
- Anti-Twist Technology (AT-T) with Spread Tow Fabric (STF): The T1200 incorporates an enhanced version of Century’s Anti-Twist Technology, which is complemented by 45/45 STF (Spread Tow Fabric). This high-performance material, used in Formula One chassis, is woven into the blank to actively reduce twist during the cast and fight. This ensures that the guides remain perfectly aligned, maximizing power transfer and line control.
- Premium Componentry: Every component on the rod is chosen for its performance and durability.
- Guides: The rod is equipped with American Tackle Titanium Anti-Tangle K Guides, which are lightweight, robust, and designed to work seamlessly with both monofilament and braided lines. This guide system significantly reduces wind knots and tangles, a crucial feature for long-distance casting.
- Reel Seat: A Century/Fuji DPS sliding reel seat allows for precise reel positioning to suit individual casting styles, and it locks securely in place without the need for a separate coaster.
- Handle: The handle is a hybrid system featuring Japanese shrink rubber (JSR) for a superior non-slip grip and comfort, even in cold or wet conditions.
