The UL rods from the Procyon series are equipped with spliced-in solid carbon fiber tip and power backbone. Consequently, these rods exhibit the perfect characteristics to target remote spots also with small lures of only 3–12g and to set the hook over long distances. The soft tip is ideally suited for sensitive bite detection with the Cheburashka rig. Any contact with the lure, bottom or fish is instantly transmitted to the handle section, enabling the scanning of bottom structures and the immediate reaction to even softest taps.
