The "Cardiff AX S62XUL-F" is a high-performance rod specifically designed for area trout fishing. I've used it for fishing about 10 times, and I've always used a rod stand during those trips. The condition is good, but since it's a used item, please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about its condition. Whether you're a beginner starting out with trout fishing or someone considering their second or third rod, this is an excellent choice. I am also listing reels that match this rod, so please consider them as well. 【Product Description】 ● Blank Technology Shimano's unique technologies, "Spiral X" and "High Power X," are used in the blanks. This reduces tip wobble during casting and power loss during fights with fish. The rod is designed to bend smoothly overall, providing powerful torque to handle even large trout when they pull strongly. ● Sensitivity and Operability The "Softube Top," which is less likely to bounce short bites, is used in the tip section, allowing you to detect subtle bites without sacrificing operability and sensitivity. ● Guide Design The top guide has a larger diameter, which reduces the problem of the guide freezing in cold weather. Lightweight titanium AT guides are used for the butt guides. ● Other Features ① CI4+ Material Shimano's unique material, lighter and stronger than conventional materials, is also used in the reel seat. ② Slim Air Seat CI4+ The grip is easy to hold and provides a good fit, contributing to weight reduction. ③ Fighting Grip Type R A lightweight and highly sensitive grip that enhances stability during fights. ● Sensitivity, into a different dimension ① Ultra-high sensitivity solid tip Transmits even the slightest bites to your hand ② Detects minute changes The movement of the lure and the conditions underwater are clearly conveyed ③ Doesn't miss hit opportunities Leads to catches even in difficult conditions Using this rod, you can experience a feeling as if you are directly connected to the underwater world. 【Basic Specs】 Item Details Total Length (m) 1.88 Number of Sections (pieces) 2 Closed Length (cm) 96.2 Weight (g) 65 Tip Diameter (mm) 1.5 Lure Weight (g) 0.4～3.5 Compatible Line Nylon (lb) 1～3 Compatible Line PE (No.) 0.15～0.4 Carbon Content (%) 94.4 Type: Trout Rod Fish Species: Trout
