Description
Hi-S 220 13ft Carp Rod
Second Hand
Condition: 9/10, comes with cloth bag
Built from the same 40t Low Resin Carbon as the other Hi-‘S’ blanks these rods have a crisp, smooth action with no ‘snatch’ – yet are still light and slim with a very fast recovery to eliminate tip bounce that cuts down distance. With the benefit of comparatively soft tip they are still capable of playing fish without the risk of hook pulls.
The newer Hi-‘S’ 220 is capable of even greater distances in the right hands and is the tool of choice for many teams competing in national and international carp fishing events.
Only available as a 13’ rod we produced the Hi-‘S’ 220 on a new mandrel to make the butt stiffer and the tip diameter less than the Hi-‘S 200 13’. Critically this makes the end of the tip lighter and faster giving the rod quicker loading and unloading speeds. This also allows the use of smaller leads to push similar distances to the Hi-‘S’ 200 which requires a bigger lead to load the blank. This also makes the tip finer for fish playing and makes the use of finer diameter lines possible.
Deciding which rod is right for you of these two 13’ distance models comes down to individual choice – however we would recommend people choose the Hi-‘S’ 200 if they want a rod that will stand up to lots of abuse or for fishing is harsh terrains – the 220 is a more refined and ultimately more capable tool but must be treated with a bit of respect.
