CATFISH Series
Spearheading Berkley’s first venture into the high tension world of European
catfish angling is a brand new 11-strong series of rods purpose designed by
many of the continent’s leading cat fishermen.
Built to last with tremendously powerful HR carbon blanks, aluminium reel
seats and double-legged guides, the range starts with three spinning rods
- 7ft (2.1m), 8ft (2.4m) and 9ft 4in (2.82m) - which have respective casting
weight ratings of 60-150, 80-200 and 100-250gr. Of two-piece construction,
they are furnished with rubber cork handles and SiC guides.
Next come two Vertic rods - a heavy duty 7ft 3in (2.2m) Boat model capable
of casting 150-300gr payloads, the other a 6ft 6in Casting version for 50-
150gr weights. There is also a 7ft (2.1m) Interline Boat rod, again rated for
150-300gr casting weights.
Float fanatics will appreciate a specialist 9ft 3in (2.82m) Catfish Float rod, and
the increasingly popular technique of pellet fishing also has its own dedicated
Catfish Pellet rod measuring 11ft (3.3m) with a 5lb test curve to deal with
giant Silure in the 150lb-plus bracket.
Finally, three Premium Catfish Spin rods add a more economical price sector
to the range. These have EVA handles and TS guides and come in 8, 9 and
10ft (2.4, 2.7 and 3m) lengths.
