A specific X-Fast action for vertical and live fishing

Developed through close collaboration between the Rodhouse team and Tony Niedz, this rod is based on a blank manufactured in the United States by North Fork Composites and assembled in France in the Rodhouse workshops, with all the expertise and craftsmanship of professional rodbuilders. With a length of 1.90 m, it is optimized for technical vertical zander fishing. Its X-Fast action combined with a soft tip helps reduce lost fish. The rod perfectly absorbs head shakes and powerful runs while ensuring solid hooksets. Despite a rated power range of 30 to 70 g, this blank stands out for its surprising progressive action that maintains excellent feel even with smaller fish. Its lightness and slim profile make it particularly pleasant to use. Combined with an ergonomic 30 cm handle between the butt and trigger, it guarantees optimal comfort for long hours of fishing, whether from a boat or a float tube.

Versatility and performance proven in competition

This very high-end model has already proven itself on the professional circuit, notably during major performances at the FC Fight Lowrance Sandre and the Zander Pro. Although its specialty is vertical fishing with jig heads between 25 and 50 g and lures from 4 to 8 inches, it also allows precise live shooting with 6-inch lures mounted on jig heads. For a balanced setup, it is recommended to use a size 150 casting reel with PE 1.5 to 2 braided line and a 0.35 or 0.40 mm fluorocarbon leader. The specific spiral guide layout and the use of soft touch carbon grips place this rod among the most efficient tools for modern predator fishing.
