Gardner GTC Continental Carp Rod

Description

The Gardner GTC Continental Carp Rod is a 10ft carp rod with a 3¼lb test curve, built for anglers who want a versatile short rod. It suits casting rigs as readily as placing rigs and playing big fish from a boat. The lightweight yet powerful blank has a medium action with a crisp, responsive feel. Gardner describes the action as steely, offering plenty of feedback and control whether you are casting a lead with accuracy or playing a fish. Power is applied progressively through the blank, so you control how much of it you use, which lets the rod cover a wide range of carp fishing situations. The GTC is a medium-fast action rod, giving fast tip recovery and accurate casting without feeling unforgiving or overly stiff. The combination of mandrel and materials used in its manufacture produces a direct, responsive connection through to the fish. It is manufactured exclusively for Gardner Tackle to exacting tolerances with a clean, uncluttered build, and the lightweight 3K-reinforced blank has been designed, developed and tested for the full range of carp fishing applications. GTC rods feature: - Full hi-gloss finish with 3K ballistic finish to just above the overfit joint. - 3K tweel finishes just above the overfit joint. This allows a faster and more responsive tip action by keeping tip weight to an absolute minimum.
