Maver Everest AX pairs a two-piece rod with a length of 3,3 m and a casting weight of 40 g with the Reality Front Drag 4000 reel. Its pronounced parabolic action allows the rod to bend deeply under load, cushioning sudden runs while retaining power for casting and playing fish.The rod was developed for competitive fishing for carp, Prussian carp and catfish on commercial fisheries. The front drag reel lets you adjust resistance during the fight and comes pre-spooled with 0,24 mm monofilament with a breaking strain of 3 kg.Key benefits and technologiesPronounced parabolic action: the rod's deep flex cushions sudden lunges, while its retained power helps with casting and control when playing fish.Ring Rotor and line-trap protection: according to the manufacturer, this design increases rotor strength and durability by approximately 30 % compared with conventional rotors and helps prevent line from getting underneath the spool.Intelligent Oscillating System (IOS): the line lay system and anti-twist line roller help ensure even spooling and reduce line twist during fishing.Waterproof multi-disc front drag: felt washers and a maximum drag of 6,35 kg allow you to adjust resistance to suit your line and the demands of the fight. Instant anti-reverse prevents unwanted backward movement of the handle.Balanced rotor and reversible handle: a computer-balanced rotor contributes to smoother rotation, the handle can be fitted on the left or right, and the EVA knob provides a comfortable grip when retrieving.Technical specificationsSet contentsEverest AX Parabolic Action rod and Reality Front Drag 4000 reel pre-spooled with monofilamentRod length3,3 mNumber of rod sections2Casting weight40 gRod actionPronounced parabolicReel size4000Reel code809MREA4Number of bearings4 + 1Gear ratio5,0 : 1Maximum drag6,35 kg (14 lb)Spool capacity150 m of 0,20 mm monofilamentReel weight320 gSpool diameter24 mmLine retrieve per handle turn74 cmBody and rotor materialGraphiteGear and drive gear materialAluminiumStandard spool and handle materialAluminiumMain shaft and ball bearing materialStainless steelHandle knobEVADragFront, waterproof, multi-disc, with felt washersAnti-reverseInstant, bearing-operatedRotorComputer-balancedLine rollerAnti-twistHandle positionLeft or rightPre-spooled line diameter0,24 mmPre-spooled line breaking strain3 kgFrequently asked questionsQ: What type of fishing is this set designed for?A: It is designed for feeder fishing, particularly on commercial fisheries and in competitions.
