How to choose a carp rod

 It is very easy to identify a carp rod among others - it immediately stands out from the crowd with its long, powerful and unusual handle arrangement. When the first carp rods appeared on the shelves of fishing stores, buyers immediately had many questions. Carp fishing imposes mandatory requirements on the range of the rod. Since carp rarely come close to the shore and are known for their shy disposition, the rig often has to be cast 100 meters or more. That is why all carp rods are distinguished by their large length - from 3.3 to 4.2 m, which makes it easy to make long-distance casting. This feature of the rod is also reflected in its folded dimensions, which for a two-piece rod will in most cases be more than 2m. This should be taken into account when preparing for its transportation. Also remember that in sports competitions there is a ban on the use of carp rods longer than 4m. It is best if the action of the rod is fast or at least close to it. Equipping with high-quality r...

Access rings.

 





Rods for almost all types of gear are equipped with access rings. They are designed to evenly distribute the load that occurs when playing a fish along the entire length of the rod. The “endless” number of rings makes it possible to use the entire safety margin of the rod when playing fish, since in this case the load is distributed most evenly along the entire length of the rods. Also, throughput rings make it much easier to work with tackle, avoid sagging of the fishing line, sticking and winding it on the rod. This is especially important for gear that is supposed to use long-range casting. In this case, the channeled movement of the fishing line when it is quickly unwound from the reel is absolutely necessary.
