The Catana Telescopic lure rods combine exceptional value with convenient short transport lengths. Available in a wide range of versatile options, with latest actions and modern looks, Catana will elevate your performance to a new level.
If you are looking for a great value lure rod, with the convenience of a short transport length, the Catana Telescopic is a superb choice. With moderate-fast actions, the Catana offers you the versatility to fish with a wide range of lures in both freshwater and saltwater.
Built on a full carbon blank, this great looking range is perfect for packing in your rucksack or leaving in the boot of your car for impromptu fishing sessions.
The full carbon blank of the Catana Telescopic is enhanced with Geofibre, which adds strength. This is very useful in the Ultra Light (UL) and Light (L) models, as it gives added security when playing large, powerful fish. In the Medium (M) and Heavy (H) models the additional Geofibre creates power for superb fish control.
All models are fitted with Shimano Hardlite guides, which are light, strong and perfectly suited to mono and braided mainlines. These guides have a minimal effect on the rods action and enhance the overall performance when you are fishing. To complement the modern appearance, an ergonomic VSS style reel seat is fitted seamlessly into the high quality cork handle.
The actions of the Catana Telescopic are true and precise. In the lighter weight actions they are great for small lures and softbaits, in the larger sizes they cast hardbaits and large lures with ease. For inner city street fishing, the convenience of the short transport length is unmatched, just pull out the sections and you are ready to fish in an instant. Whichever Catana you choose, you can be sure that you have made a great choice to elevate your fishing performance to new heights.
