Korda Kaizen Green Rods - Ian's Fishing Tackle

About This Product

Bestel bij – dé specialist voor karpervissers! It also allows for faster line pick up, which can be a big advantage, but also has enough give in the tip that the rod will absorb the lunges of a fish at close quarters without fear of pulling the hook due to the rod being too unforgiving – even in the hands of a relative novice carp angler, the Kaizen Green rods will still be a pleasure to play fish on, whatever type of water you are fishing. Kaizen Green 12ft 2.75lb Floater Board Korda Kaizen Green Rods - Ian's Fishing Tackle Korda Kaizen Green Carp Rods ” “With the whole of the Kaizen Green range, we’ve tried to bring you the highest performance products at the most affordable prices, that pretty much anyone who goes carp fishing, can afford to have a set of rods plus a spod rod. Flared end to butt grip The taper means that you’ve still got that forgiving tip but the power is there to cast a long way. I really like them, having not used 10-footers before, as they have a shorter handle and are really good for manoeuvring around on the boat, and you can get the fish closer to the boat as they’re shorter, and they’re nicer for dropping a lead over the side. Kaizen Green 12ft 4lb | Korda These features a special ADAMAN coating which is ten times tougher than stainless steel and which ensures smoother line passage across it, as well as improved abrasion resistance. This makes the blank slightly heavier and ever so slightly slower in terms of the recovery after casting, but the action of them is almost identical. This gives a taper that consistently goes all the way from butt to tip, and produces a very ‘tippy’ action, with most of the flex being at that end of the rod until it comes under more extreme loading, such as when casting. In Europe, the 10ft models are also available with Sea-Guide BXTLSG guides, which feature a ceramic insert that is even more abrasion resistant and suitable for use with heavier braided lines being constantly run across it under extreme tension, whilst still feeling smooth to the angler, as well as being a little less susceptible to being damaged when they are bounced around in when laid in a boat as you motor to or from your spot. But for many anglers and unless pushing the rods to the extreme, you won’t even notice the difference. You need some finesse when floater fishing and this 12ft, 2.75TC Kaizen Green Floater Rod is a fantastic addition to the range. The rod is extremely light and responsive but also has a decent backbone, when playing larger specimens. Cosmetically, the Kaizen Green range has a custom built, minimalist look, with a low glare, matt finish to the blank, black whippings and just a subtle green logo. The main difference performance-wise is that they won’t transfer power into the cast to quite the same degree; won’t recover quite so quickly after the cast; and are slightly more susceptible to the blank twisting during casting, which will marginally reduce accuracy. Lightweight, strong and durable Daiwa 12ft Longbow DF Carp Rods - Glasgow Angling Centre Low glare, matt finish, with subtle green logo Your reel is attached via a top quality Sea-Guide DPS style reel seat. They’ve got a great battle curve, a really fast recovery, they cast brilliantly, and they’re still very light in your hands. ” “We’ve done 10-footers for the first time and I’ve been using those quite a bit, for dropping rigs from a boat on some really big lakes out in Europe. Sea-Guide TDG twin leg/foot stainless steel 40mm butt ring 16mm tip guide All of the 12ft and 13ft models feature 50mm butt rings and a 16mm tip ring, whilst the 10ft model has a 40mm butt ring and 12mm tip guide. ” “The main difference you’ll find between the Green and the Kaizen Platinum is the modulus of carbon that is used – the Green has a lower modulus carbon so you need more of it to create the same strength. You could pick a Kaizen Green up and think it was a 300 or 400 quid rod, they’re that good. The guides chosen are the Sea-Guide TDG twin leg/foot stainless steel ones, which are lightweight whilst also being very strong and durable. To complement the fishing rods, we have also designed Kaizen Green spod rods in a choice of 12ft or 13ft, both of which are capable of hurling even the largest Spombs and spods – weighing up to 8oz - a very long way, and certainly as far as you can cast a baited rig with the fishing rods. Our first foray into the rod market was a huge success, but we also realised that not all anglers can afford a set of Platinums, or possibly they don’t need that level of performance and aren’t fishing often enough to justify the price tag, so we got to work on a model that will still do everything that you require it to, apart from maybe in the most extreme situations and which is priced at a level which makes the Kaizen Green available to anybody. Black Japanese shrink wrap The handle is covered in black Japanese shrink wrap and with a flared end to it, which offers better grip during casting and allows you to confidently pull the rod through with maximum force without fear of your hands slipping. Custom built, minimalist look The Korda Kaizen Green Carp Rod 12ft - 2.75lb is a special edition of the popular Kaizen Green range that offers more finesse when floater fishing. Based on a slim lightweight blank with premium fixtures and fittings That is finished with an injection moulded butt clap featuring a green Korda logo.
