This Special offer bundle comes with the following:
3 x Kaizen Platinum 12ft 3.5lb Rods
1 X 42in Korda Spring Bow Net
The Rods:
The Kaizen Platinum 12ft 3.5lb test curve rod is the perfect all-rounder and the best option for carp anglers who want as much versatility as possible from just one set of rods. The lightweight, perfectly balanced, blank can accommodate the most delicate of precision flicks on an intimate venue, all the way through to a 35+ wrap blast on a lake of ‘Gigantica’ proportions. This is ideal model if you want one set of high-end rods that will do it all. Recommended casting weight: 2-4oz.
Danny Fairbrass: “I’ve been using a heavier version during field testing, but it’s nice to go back to the 12ft 3.5lb rods as they are the all-rounders, if you want to fish anywhere from one yard to 140 yards, with pinpoint accuracy, then these are the ones”
The Net:
Like rods, landing nets can be a very personal choice. Aesthetics, function and price always influencing most anglers’ decision making when purchasing a new item of tackle.
We took our inspiration from a classic design from the past. Available in the early eighties by a shop in North London, Dons of Edmonton. Their Springbow was a brown fibre glass net, featuring a very unique, heavy stainless spreader tube, but that said it was the net of the era and the only serious choice for the carp fisher of the day!
The fashion of today seems to be for very thin handles similar to or matching an angler’s carp rods.
We have gone completely against this trend. For performance it was incredibly important that both the arms and pole had inherent stiffness. By having a very low diameter pole, you increase weight because you must increase wall thickness, thin handles are simply not as good to hold in use. A higher diameter handle increases stiffness, is easier to use and more comfortable to grip. We can utilise a thinner wall section without having to compromise on strength or weight.
