Rods

If there was ever a selection of rods that caters to every style of carp angling you could possibly imagine, it would have to be the brand new Propel rod range from Trakker. Whether you are looking for an all-rounder, are an avid boat angler, regularly fish at distance or travel with minimal kit, this line-up really does have it all. Best of all, every single entrant in the Propel rod range has been engineered using premium carbon technology, which of course leads to the aesthetic of every model, as the design can only described as modern and sleek through the utilisation of high quality materials, fixtures and fittings. 

The Propel-A is the first of five styles of rod in the range, which is a truly fantastic all-rounder that displays an impeccable progressive fish playing action. Coupled with fast tip recovery, long distance casts can be achieved with accuracy on a consistent basis. Designed to angle on a variety of waters, the Propel-A rods are available in a 12ft 3lb as well as a 12ft 3.5lb. The aircraft grade 1k Japanese Toray carbon not only makes a stunning looking rod, but durability and reliability are created as a result. There are also additional features such as the carbon line clip and reel seat, which give an added sense of quality for every rod in the range. Should you regularly fish from a boat or plan to in the near future, the Propel-B rods target this angler in mind, or perhaps those who fish smaller, more intimate venues. Much like the aforementioned, this model displays an incredible fish playing through action, which is ideal for the prevention of hook-pulls when battling against hard fighting carp at close range. As well as fantastic fish control, the Propel-B is an accurate yet sensitive choice when looking to drop a bait on a newly polished area. You can obtain these rods in either 10ft 3lb or 10ft 3.5lb. 

The Propel-D have been specifically designed for long distance fishing, and despite being a real powerhouse of a rod with a stiffened action, the user is able to land rigs with pinpoint precision. This high-performance model has been able to achieve casts of a whopping 230 yards with a baited rig, making this particular rod a leading option for long range waters. The Propel D are available in 12ft and 13ft models, both with a 3.75lb test curve. 

If you require a matching or dedicated spod and marker rod, the Propel-D Spod/Marker Rod will be able to deliver loaded Spombs to the horizon. A stepped-up action and fast tip recovery allow for supreme control. There are also 1ft and 2ft depth markers when looking to effectively mark areas of interest. The American Tackle TI Shadow Guides allow all main line to flow through the rings like butter, preventing any unwanted drag, resulting in extreme distance casting. The last of the five models is Trakker’s Propel-R, which is a super unique retractable rod that measures only four feet when packed down, whilst extending to a total length of 10 feet. Available in both a 3lb and 3.5lb test curve, the user will be able to tackle canals, rivers and lakes effectively with no compromise. Easy to transport and designed to be flexible and strong, the Propel-R rods are able to conquer anything that is thrown their way.
