Nytro Impax Allrounder Rods

Nytro Impax Allrounder Rods

The Nytro Impax Allrounder range is the ultimate “utility player” for your rod holdall. Designed to be the perfect entry-level powerhouse, these rods prove that you don’t need to break the bank to get high-performance carbon under your fingers. Whether you are targeting roach and skimmers at close range on a canal or launching a heavy feeder for bream on a massive natural reservoir, the Impax Allrounder lives up to its name across all seasons.

Built on 24T carbon-curve blanks, these rods feature a progressive through-action that is forgiving enough to prevent hook-pulls on soft-mouthed silverfish, yet packs enough “grunt” in the butt section to tame a double-figure commercial carp. Furnished with ultra-light minima-style guides, the blank remains responsive and fast, ensuring your casting stays pinpoint accurate.

Key Features & Benefits

• 24T Carbon-Curve Blanks: High-quality carbon construction that balances a lightweight feel with the durability needed for year-round fishing.

• Progressive Allround Action: The rod bends smoothly throughout the blank, absorbing the lunges of big fish while maintaining enough stiffness for accurate distance casting.

• Ultra-Light Minima-Style Guides: These low-profile guides reduce the overall weight of the rod and minimize line friction, helping you squeeze out those extra yards on the cast.

• Hybrid Handle Design: Combines the classic feel of high-grade cork with the durability of EVA grips, finished with a stylish carbon wrap on the handle section.

• 2.5mm Carbon Quiver Tips: Every rod comes with two dedicated carbon tips. The 2.5mm diameter is the “sweet spot” for sensitivity and strength.

• Oversized Hook Keeper: A simple but vital addition that allows you to hook your rig securely when moving between pegs without damaging your guides or line.

Model Spotlight: The 13ft (3.90m) Allrounder

The 13ft Impact Allrounder is the “big gun” of the family. If your local venue requires a long cast to reach the fish, or if you’re tackling a river with a decent flow, this is the tool for the job. It offers massive power reserves for “winding up” a heavy feeder, but the 24T blank ensures it doesn’t feel like a poker when you’re playing a fish under the rod tip.

Where to Use the Impax Allrounder

• Commercial Carp Fisheries: The progressive action is perfect for the Method feeder, allowing the rod to “wrap around” when a carp bolts.

• Natural Reservoirs: Use the 12ft or 13ft models to punch feeders out into deep water for Bream and Skimmers.

• Rivers: The 13ft model has the length and power to keep your line out of the marginal flow when targeting Chub and Barbel.

• Winter Silverfish: Swap to the 0.75oz or 1oz tip (available separately) for ultimate bite detection when the fish are barely moving.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“Don’t let the ‘entry-level’ tag fool you—the Impax Allrounder punches well above its weight class. My favorite thing about these is the 2.5mm tip system. Because the tips are carbon, they recover much faster than glass tips, meaning the rod stays still after a cast instead of wobbling like a jelly. If you’re using the 13ft model for distance, try pairing it with a 5000-size reel and a thin sinking mono like the Nytro Sublime. You’ll be amazed at how easily you can hit the ‘horizon’ without feeling like you’re working for it!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are the tips interchangeable between different models?

A: Yes! All rods in the Impax Allrounder range use the same 2.5mm diameter tips, so you can build a collection of 0.75oz to 2oz tips that will fit any rod in your Allrounder setup.

Q: Is 13ft too long for a small commercial?

A: If the lake is very tight, you might prefer the 10ft or 11ft models. However, the 13ft is perfect if you need to “reach over” marginal reeds or if you’re casting to far-bank features on larger waters.

Q: Will the minima guides handle braided line?

A: Absolutely. The ultra-hard inserts on the minima-style guides are designed to be abrasion-resistant, making them perfectly suitable for use with both monofilament and modern braided mainlines.

Q: How does the ‘Screw-down’ reel seat help?

A: It provides a much more secure connection than older ‘slide-ring’ styles. Once your reel is locked in, it won’t wobble or come loose, which is vital when you’re playing hard-fighting fish.
