Graphiteleader Aspro description
Graphiteleader Aspro is the result of cooperation between the leading Japanese manufacturer Olimpic, which owns the brand Graphiteleader, MIDA company and the famous sportsman, four-time world champion Andrei Pitertsov. All Andrei’s thoughts, all his requirements and wishes were embodied in each model of the series, from the formation of the preliminary idea of a rod, its concept to the final testing and design development. For two years Aspro series spinning rods were being developed and tested on various water areas , overcame severe conditions of the Extreme North and several stages of PAL tournament.
Aspro series was born in professional sports. And the participation of Andrei Pitertsov in its development is not accidental. He, like no one else, knows the increased demands placed on the tackle in big sports. One of the main criteria for choosing professional rods is their reliability. Aspro series rods fully meet this requirement. Sport doesn’t forgive mistakes.
Since the beginning of work on the development of Aspro, Graphiteleader was given the most difficult task: to create a lightweight rod, capable of truly enormous loads and having a tremendous tactile sensitivity. Additionally, the design of the spinning rod had to be exquisite and very succinct. Not an easy task. But as the result showed, the Graphiteleader specialists coped with it perfectly.
Excellent balance, excellent casting performance – the Aspro has all this in full, but the main feature is, of course, the amazing power. Any trophy, whether it is catfish or salmon, pike or trophy pikeperch, can be easily managed in the most difficult conditions – in the snags, on a stony places, in thickets vegetation. At the same time, sensitivity even at the lightest weights of the test range is at the highest level.
The series includes both highly specialized models, and spinning rods of wider orientation. For example, model 702MH – rod, first of all, designed for jerkbait types of lures – twitching the large minnow-type wobblers. And model 742M is able to close all the questions both in jig and wobbler fishing within its recommended lure weight range, while perfectly working with the Drop-Shot. Carolina, Split-Shot and metal lures.
