The rod is specially designed for versatile perch casting. The rod is light to use, with a sensitive and tactile tip that grabs and holds perch well all the way to the boat. The raw power found in the base allows you to reel in the occasional larger fish, such as a 5 kg pike, in a calm manner.
The design of the long rod has been taken into account above all for fishing with hard lures. At a slightly longer length, it casts perfectly well from hardweights from rods to magazines. For jig fishermen, the Long Aapo offers added value above all for catching larger perch. And if you need to fish both perch and pike with a single rod, this is the stick for you.
The action of the rod is slightly slower than the Aapo 2.0 and Kössi 2.0 rods (moderate fast). This makes it easier to cast, for example, light and bulky rods without the lure picking up the hook so easily. The Long Aapo also casts further than the Aapo 2.0 with its longer free length.
Designed for 2500 size open reels
The pole is designed for the 2500 size haspel or open reel. The Vapa reel set is perfectly balanced. The 2500 open reel is versatile and allows for higher reel speeds when fishing shallow.
