Sportex Graphenon Travel Ultra Spinning Rod
The Graphenon series from the house of Sportex is one of the best rod series that you can currently have in your hand as an angler. It is incredibly innovative and built with only the best components currently available. The special thing about the Graphenon series is that not only commercial carbon is used for the blank, but also up to 20% graphene is incorporated. Graphene is an incredibly resilient material as it consists of a honeycomb carbon structure. Incredible tensile strength and structural integrity characterize the material, which are fundamental factors in rod building. A crucial aspect of the Graphenon series is that the rods are incredibly fast and yet can load tremendously during the cast, thanks to the graphene structure. All Graphenon rods are also extremely light, as they are built on T800 carbon. They withstand immense loads and can easily tame even fish that seem oversized for the respective casting weight. Only the highest quality components from Fuji in Japan are used, such as the Fuji KL/KT-SIC for the guides and as Fuji TVS for reel seats. In addition, there is a 10-year warranty on all blanks of the Graphenon rods.
Graphenon Travel Ultra
The Graphenon Travel Ultra series consists of two rods that really put any telescopic rod in the bag in terms of transport length. To stay directly on the subject, the two models really fit in any, yes, any travel bag and even in any medium sized backpack! They were designed for air travel but serve not only the globetrotter, yet also the angler who rarely fishes but then sometimes spontaneously wants to escape to the water with shirt and tie. They can simply lie in the trunk without ever getting noticed and then for a quick session just put it together and go fishing. Of course, these rods were also designed with a special level of stability and fighting power in mind, as it is not uncommon for these two rods to take on the strongest fish in the world, such as smaller GT, Tarpon, Barracuda, Blackbass or our local apex predators.
230 cm // 25-68 g: With a transport length of 51 cm, the 5-piece Graphenon Travel Ultra is the perfect companion when it comes to covering a wide range of modern spin fishing. It is 230 cm long and has a casting weight of 25-68 g, so it can be used well for zander and pike fishing in our home climes. Of course, it can also be used from the boat at tropical vacation destinations for jigging or topwater fishing.
265 cm // 33-88g: The 6-piece Graphenon Travel Ultra has a transport length of sweet 49 cm length and serves the entire spectrum of medium-heavy fishing. It has a length of 265 cm with a casting weight of 33-88 g and can be called a decent opponent for GT and Co. It also has no problem with a continuous action despite its five connectors and is simply a weapon in the fight with strong fish.
