The Black Pearl range is One More Cast's first carp rod series, developed over four years of design and testing. The rods use a blend of high-performance carbons finished with a 3K wrap, which delivers power and control. The carp rods feature a Dark Olive EVA and Cork Hybrid Handle that stays cleaner, lasts longer, and helps compress the blank for longer casts. Gold Pearlescent branding shifts colour in sunlight, and the range consists of five models covering different carp angling scenarios. - 10ft – Take Me Anywhere (3.5lb TC): Ideal for shorter sessions, tight swims, boat work, or stalking. Compact but powerful, with the backbone to handle snags or weedy spots. Perfect for casting up to 70–80 yards with control and finesse. Brilliant with bait boats. - 12ft – Master of All (3.75lb TC): Ideal for all-rounders who demand versatility. Casts up to 130 yards with ease. Handles solid bags, singles, and 3–5oz leads effortlessly. Balanced beautifully for both casting and fish playing. - 13ft – Extreme Range (4lb TC): Ideal for long-range experts and power casters. Designed for 100–160 yard baited rigs. Fast taper with explosive power, yet soft in the tip for close-in battles. Feels like a true tournament tool but personal. - 12ft – Spod/Marker (5lb TC): Ideal for accurate feature finding and heavy spodding. Effortlessly casts any Spod size to 130 yards. Tip stiffness helps identify lakebed details cleanly. Balanced for repeated casting without arm fatigue. - 13ft – Spod/Marker (5lb TC): Ideal for big hitters who love pushing the limit. Ferocious power yet surprisingly smooth to use. Easily sends Spods to extreme distances. Balanced to reduce fatigue over long baiting sessions. Spod and Marker models feature 20mm SeaGuide tip eyes to reduce frap-ups and wind knots when using fine braid with shock leaders. Feature highlights: - Premium Blended Carbon Blanks – including 3k wrap. - SIC Sea-Guides – Smooth casting, maximum line protection. - Optimised Guide Sizes – 16mm tip (Carp), 20mm tip (Spod), 50mm butt guides. - Custom Branded Reel Seats – Rock-solid reel security. - Custom Cork/EVA Handles – on the Carp rods. - Performance Japanese Shrink-Wrap Handles – on the Spod and Marker rods. - Subtle OMC Black Pearl Branding – Understated, pearlescent. - Etched Butt Cap and Minimalist Detailing – Every inch considered. The range was built to remove guesswork from rod selection. Every model is the result of hands-on testing, obsessive refinement, and real-world angling feedback, with a focus on real feel, proper casting behaviour, and handling power rather than overthinking test curves.
