This is a specialized tanago rod designed for targeting small fish. As a short, no-guide rod, it's perfect for enjoying delicate fishing for tanago, crucian carp, moroko, and other small fish in small ponds, marshes, irrigation canals, and narrow ditches in rice paddies. The grip is carbon, which is unusual for a tanago rod! It feels good in the hand and provides excellent sensitivity. The rod is made with great care and has a beautiful finish. It's small and lightweight enough to fit in your pocket. The carbon grip is a cool feature, rare among the small rods that often feature the understated elegance of bamboo crafted by artisans! It employs a rotating top to prevent line tangles. The tip rotates 360 degrees, preventing line tangles, a major enemy of fishing with delicate, thin lines. The length is 150cm (1.5m), a versatile size for a tanago rod. Also recommended for small fish and freshwater prawns.
