Description
You need some finesse when floater fishing and this 12ft, 2.75TC Kaizen Green Floater Rod is a fantastic addition to the range. The rod is extremely light and responsive but also has a decent backbone, when playing larger specimens. In testing, Neil Spooner landed fish to 36lb and had the following to say about the rod:
Neil Spooner: “I used the Kaizen Green Floater Rod for the whole of last summer and absolutely LOVED IT! From using small interceptors for close in work, right the way through to the 80g model at longer ranges, the rod can do it all.”
The Kaizen Green Journey Explained
Following on from the hugely successful launch of our first rods under the Kaizen banner, we’ve followed that up with a more affordable, yet still high performance, range called Kaizen Green.
The Kaizen Green sits below the flagship Kaizen Platinum rods, but still shares many of the same attributes and design features which set those rods apart, but at a much more affordable price.
Our first foray into the rod market was a huge success, but we also realised that not all anglers can afford a set of Platinums, or possibly they don’t need that level of performance and aren’t fishing often enough to justify the price tag, so we got to work on a model that will still do everything that you require it to, apart from maybe in the most extreme situations and which is priced at a level which makes the Kaizen Green available to anybody.
The actions of the various models in the Kaizen Green range are almost identical to those of the corresponding Platinum models, with the main difference being that they are built using a more affordable grade of carbon. The main difference performance-wise is that they won’t transfer power into the cast to quite the same degree; won’t recover quite so quickly after the cast; and are slightly more susceptible to the blank twisting during casting, which will marginally reduce accuracy. But for many anglers and unless pushing the rods to the extreme, you won’t even notice the difference.
