Advanta Discovery CSX Spod And Marker Rod

Advanta Discovery CSX Spod And Marker Rod

If you’re a carp angler who likes to fish out at distance then it is likely that you’ll already be well aware of the benefits that marking and spodding your swim can provide. Placing a marker float on top of your chosen feature can make repeated casting more accurate, as it gives you a clear spot to aim for on what could otherwise be open and featureless water. Similarly, spodding allows you to deliver a huge amount of bait out to distant feature, enabling you to place a large amount of freebie boilies or groundbait over which you can present your hookbait. Having the right tools for the job is as important in this area of carp fishing as it is in any other area of the discipline, especially when it comes to the rod you use. This is because your marker and spod are likely to be significantly heavier than your typical terminal tackle setup. This means that you need a rod which is capable of punching out a loaded setup over great distances. The Advanta Discovery CSX Spod and Marker Rod is the perfect tool for the job.

The rod blank is manufactured to the same high standards as the rest of the rods in the Advanta Discovery range. As such, it features an extra-tough 30T carbon blank, which gives this rod the backbone that it requires to cast out fully loaded spods. However, despite this robust backbone, the rod is every bit as slim as the rest of the rods in the range. In fact, this rod has a power to diameter ratio which really needs to be experienced in order to be believed. The Advanta Discovery CSX Spod and Marker Rod boasts an impressive 5.5lb test curve. This allows you to load up the rod will large spod rockets with the confidence that it is more than capable of casting out huge distances with ease.

As you will have come to expect, this rod has been furnished to exacting standards. It features an 18mm DPS reel seat, which is perfect for housing big pit reels – allowing you the freedom to cast out to extreme ranges with confidence. The lightweight LTS guides start with a 50mm butt guide, too. This ensures that you can make huge distance casts as it reduces the friction on the line as it peels from your reel. These guides are in a dark gun metal grey colour, ensuring that they look great next to the matt black of the rod. The Advanta Discovery CSX Spod and Marker Rod features the same high quality full parallel Japanese shrink wrap as the rest of the high end rods in the Discovery CSX carp rod range. This ensures that you can enjoy flawless grip in all manner of conditions and regardless of how cold or wet your hands are you’ll never have to worry about your hand slipping from your grip.

To help further improve casting accuracy, the Advanta Discovery CSX Spod and Marker Rod has been fitted with a polished metal line clip. This is completely line friendly, allowing you to fish with a whole range of fishing line without worrying that your line will sustain weakening damage. The entire outfit is completed with a laser etched butt cap. This rod is an excellent addition to the growing Advanta Discovery range. Advanta was established in 2011 and the entire range is exclusively available at Angling Direct.
