Avid Carp Ascent Retractable Rod model 10ft / 3.50lb
Avid Carp Ascent Retractable 10 ft – carp rod with retractable butt section / AVID CARP / A0460065
Avid Carp Ascent Retractable Rod – 10 ft carp rod with adjustable butt section
The Avid Carp Ascent Retractable Rod is a two-piece 10 ft / 3.05 m carp rod featuring an adjustable, retractable butt section. This solution allows the rod to be reduced to 128 cm for transport while retaining a full-size 10 ft construction when fishing.
Adjustable Retractable butt section
The key difference compared to standard Ascent models is the extendable butt section. Before fishing, the butt section extends to its full length, while for transport it can be retracted, reducing the packed rod length to 128 cm.
This is not a classic telescopic rod – the construction remains two-piece, with only the butt section being adjustable.
High-modulus carbon blank
The blank is made from high-modulus carbon fibre, delivering a responsive action and sufficient power reserves during casting and playing fish. Its progressive action helps absorb pressure smoothly when fighting fish.
Multidirectional carbon and 1K weave
The construction uses multidirectional carbon fibre fabric to help maintain blank stability under load. The external 1K weave further reinforces the construction while maintaining low weight and precise rod action.
Anti-Tangle XTG Sea-Guide guides
The rods are fitted with Anti-Tangle XTG Sea-Guide guides with LS Zirconia inserts. The 40–16 mm guide layout ensures smooth line flow, while the Anti-Tangle design reduces the risk of line wrapping around the guide frames during casting.
Sea-Guide XDPS 18 mm and full Japanese Shrink handle
The reel is secured in a black Sea-Guide XDPS 18 mm reel seat. The full-length handle is finished with Japanese Shrink material, while the subtly flared butt grip and rounded end cap improve control during casting.
