Designed as a dedicated big pike fishing tool, ideal for both legered deadbaits, or as a distance float rod.
At 12ft and with a test curve of 3 1/4lb the blank is capable of distance casting big deadbaits up to 8oz.
The subtle dark platinum blank is fitted with seven large diameter Sic guides, enabling stop knots to pass freely and and optimizing distance, just one 25mm line guide is fitted to the butt section. Guides are double legged, adding extra rigidity to the blank which helps set big trebles into bony jaws and to safeguide the rings against the rigiurs of big water piking.
The high modulus carbon blank has impressive reserves of power but features a responsive tip for good line control, useful for counteracting drift when float fishing at range. The progressive action comes through into the butt section making the rod an excellent shock obsorber ideal for subduing big, hard fighting pike. Finished with an attractive cork handle with a hardwearing short EVA section and stainless ESOX butt cap. At 25 inches 64cm the handle enables doublehand overhead casting to compress the blank and get heavy rigs out to that distance drop off. A quality Fuji DNPS 20 screw up reel fitting will fit all but the biggest reels.
Recommended for use with mainlines of 10lb to 15lb mono or braids of higher breaking strains.
