Same DNA as the legendary Statement 724, but with a power that changes everything. The WKS-Statement727 pushes the concept up to 50 g and opens the door to deep-water fishing. The sensitivity of the Statement range, at the service of more powerful techniques. Here is why it deserves a place in your arsenal.

The Statement 727: the Sensitivity of the Great Blanks, with Added Power

An Exclusive NFC Blank That Pushes the Statement Range Further

Like the entire Statement range, the 727 blank is manufactured exclusively for Rodhouse by North Fork Composites. Same design philosophy, same demands on taper, same obsession for resonance — but with a noticeably larger format. Where the Statement 724 covers finesse fishing up to 25 g, the 727 goes up to 50 g while retaining that unique ability of NFC blanks to be lively during the animation and progressive in the fight. A combination that is not easily found on the market.

Single-piece at 2.17 m, it offers an ideal length to cover a wide variety of situations, both from the shore and from the boat. Its excellent sensitivity makes it a tool of choice for all soft lure techniques, from the most finesse to the most demanding, while its strong power reserve allows it to go after fish wherever they are hiding — in snags, heavy cover, or difficult bottoms.

Bass and Pollack First and Foremost

The WKS-Statement 727 stands out as a versatile rod perfectly suited to boat fishing. It allows the use of a wide variety of lures for bass and handles without difficulty a good hundred grams vertically for pollack. Thanks to its solid power reserve, it remains reliable even against more combative catches such as meagre or bonito.

A Statement Build Worthy of the Blank

Full Carbon and Fuji IPS: Consistency and Lightness Along the Entire Length

The WKS-Statement727 is built with a carbon handle and a Fuji IPS reel seat positioned 33 cm from the butt. On a blank as resonant as the Statement 727, this choice of material is self-evident: carbon transmits vibrations without filtering or dampening them, fully preserving the sensitivity that NFC has built into this blank. Over long sessions, the lightness of the entire setup makes itself felt in terms of fatigue — or rather, its absence.

Fuji Titanium Torzite Guides: the Signature of the WKS Rods from Rodhouse

True to the philosophy of the entire WKS range, the Statement727 is fitted with Fuji Titanium Torzite guides — the best available line guidance for thin braid in all circumstances. Whether scratching, on the linear retrieve or vertically with heavier rigs, the Torzite insert guarantees zero friction and maximum durability. The Titanium frame, of absolute lightness, adds no parasitic mass along the 2.17 m of the blank and scrupulously respects its vibrational behaviour. On a blank of this calibre, every component counts — and here, nothing has been left to chance.
