In the fight with your big carp, one thing is paramount - the reliability of your equipment. Because nothing is worse if the equipment fails in a tug-of-war between man and finned predator. In addition to a strong line and a reliable reel, the fishing rod is of the utmost importance.

Telescopic – or plug-in rod?

For professional carp fishing, a plug-in rod is always recommended, as it has a better rod action compared to a telescopic rod. However, telescopic rods have their raison d'être due to their small transport dimensions and quick deployment. The telescopic rod is very practical, especially for a quick session or a hide on vacation. However, if you intend to fish regularly for carp, then a plug-in rod is recommended.

Material & guides

When it comes to carp rods, you have the choice between carbon fiber (carbon) and glass fiber. Carbon is light and stable and is preferable to the significantly heavier and less stable fiberglass.

Another important quality point is the fitting of your carp rod, as the guides are subject to enormous strain. Make sure that the rod has durable double guides with a ring insert made of silicon carbide, aluminum oxide or titanium oxide. These materials also ensure that you can land a long cast.

Length & casting weight

Rods are generally specified in feet (ft) or inches (inch). Choose the length of your carp rod depending on the area of use. If you are fishing from a boat or on a small canal, a rod length of 2.70 to 3m (9ft – 10ft) is sufficient. If you are fishing from the bank and want to cast longer distances, lengths of around 3.60m (12ft) are ideal.

The casting weight of a carp rod is given in lbs (pounds). However, the weight does not mean the final casting weight, but the weight you need to bend the rod tip 90 degrees downwards. A carp rod with 3 lbs, for example, requires 1362g to produce the parabolic action described above.

You can easily calculate the final casting weight using the rule of thumb:

1lbs = 30g casting weight

Rod action

Another important aspect of a carp rod is the rod action, which describes the behavior of your fishing rod during the fight. Basically, we distinguish between four rod actions:

 Rod action

 Effects

 Advantage / disadvantage

 parabolic   rod action
  • Rod bends over the entire length
  • low backbone
  • Suitable for fishing in waters with few obstacles
  • Little pressure on fish

 

 semi-parabolic   rod action
  • Rod bends over half its length
  • Middle ridge
  • Higher pressure on fish

 

 progressive   rod action
  • only rod tip bends
  • high casting distance

 

 Top action
  • Very strong backbone
  • Very high throwing distance
  • Fish headbutts are poorly cushioned

 

Depending on preference and area of use, all rod actions have advantages and disadvantages. In general, rods with progressive rod actions have established themselves among carp anglers.
