Composition

The core of the rod is a modern carbon composite blank, which was developed to maintain a very slim profile while ensuring above-standard mechanical resistance to overloading during power casts. The rod is fitted with lightweight LS guides, which do not weigh down the backbone of the rod and support its rapid recovery during casting. The proven DPS reel seat firmly holds even large carp reels without any play. The minimalist style handle is coated in the rear section with Japanese shrink rubber (Shrink Rubber), which is very comfortable to hold, does not slip even in wet hands, and is very easy to clean from mud or bait.

Why Choose This Product

If you are looking for a reliable carp specialist rod in a full 12ft length (3.60m) but also require uncompromising power for casting heavier leads, feeders, or fishing in flowing river waters, the JRC Defender II Tele 3.60m 3.50lbs is a great choice for you. The 3.50 lbs test curve provides a massive power reserve for accurate casting at longer distances and reliably handles the resistance of fighting river carp or grass carp in strong currents and near obstacles. The greatest advantage of this model is its forgiving action combined with a progressive blank bend – the rod bends smoothly under load, which perfectly cushions the final wild runs of the fish near the bank and minimizes the risk of losing your catch. The subtle matte look also gives a luxurious impression that far exceeds the price category of this rod.
