Winter Rod ASSERI Carbon Kuha 59cm (Heavy) - For Stork Fishing

The ASSERI Carbon Kuha 59cm is a specialised winter rod designed for targeting sturgeon and large perch or pike. As the name suggests ("Kuha" is Finnish for "Stork"), this model is designed to overcome the hard jaws of these fish and give the angler maximum control.

Carbon Blank

The main advantage of this rod is its high modulus carbon fibre blank. Unlike fibreglass rods, the Carbon construction is lighter, stiffer and, most importantly, incomparably more responsive. You'll feel every flick of a VIB lure or cautious touch of a sturgeon right in your hand, so an extra guard is usually not needed.

"Heavy Action - Power for Undercutting

The "Heavy" (H) indicates that the rod is tough and powerful. This is critical in sturgeon fishing: a soft rod will 'bend' on impact and will not be able to pierce the bony barb of the fish. The ASSERI Carbon Kuha remains rigid, so the bite is sharp, fast and effective.

Application

This rod is ideal for fishing with the most popular baits in Lithuanian waters:

• VIB (Rattlin) lures: The rigid blank prevents the lure from "burning" during the retrieve.

Heavy

• balances and shiners: Perfectly controls lures in deep holes or in current (e.g. in Nemunas, Kuršmari).

Features:

• Length: 59 cm - optimum length for both sitting and standing fishing.

• Material: Carbon - for maximum sensitivity.

• Power: Heavy - for guaranteed bite.

• Handle:

• Quality cork handle (Cork) which is warm and pleasant to hold.

• Rings: Robust, designed for braided line.
