Fishing rod material is an essential factor in your selection. Most Abu Garcia® fishing rods are constructed with graphite. This innovative material is preferred by experienced anglers for its blend of lightweight feel and fighting power. Graphite is versatile enough to handle fishing in most situations.
Abu Garcia® casting rods are equipped to handle heavy line and big lures—great for trolling or nabbing a trophy catch. And Abu Garcia® spinning rods are optimized to perform in tricky situations, handling light line and bait and specific finesse techniques.
It's the details that make the difference in your Abu Garcia® fishing rod. High-density EVA handles provide better grip and sensitivity.
Abu Garcia® fishing rods are classified by their power. This ranges from light to medium to heavy and extra heavy. Rod power describes the weight of your rod.
While graphite is the primary material in the construction of your Abu Garcia® rod, keep in mind blank material. Nano Technology increases impact resistances to prevent nicks and abrasions in the blank. Carbon fiber blanks help rods retain their strength—even under heavy loads. Standard graphite blanks offer the best value for hobby anglers.
