telescope rod-Energy The Energy rod series was developed by professional anglers with the "all around angler" in mind. High quality components such as a mixed carbon blank, comfortable cork handle, guides with high quality inserts, and a metal butt-cap were incorporated in the construction. The use of a blank made from a composite of fiberglass and carbon make the rod stabile – with a fast and strong backbone – for direct contact with the fish. A secure hook-set is secured whether it be on carp or predatory fish – even at long distances.
