In 1994, a revolutionary rod was created: the Orient Power Plus Leon Hoogendijk! At the time, the performance of this rod surpassed everything that existed in terms of high-end carp rods. Thanks to the specific and very technical composition of its blank, this adjustable-action rod casts further with greater precision and was a real delight when fighting carp of all sizes. Just over 25 years later, we find this extreme versatility in the new series of Orient Power Plus 2020 edition rods!
Aesthetically, we remain close to the original version: holographic blue blank, Gunsmoke reinforcement ring on the female part of the reinforced reversed joint, reliable and secure Fuji Gunsmoke reel seat. The typical knob on the butt (very useful) has been the signature of Orient Power rods from the beginning! What has changed are the guides, not in diameter but in model: Kigan ZD Anti Tangle with stainless steel frame (Gunsmoke finish) with Zirconium ring! These high-end guides, very light and resistant, optimize the sliding of monofilament and braided lines and prolong the life of your main line and increase casting distance. Their specific shape eliminates any risk of entanglement of the main line or the leader around a guide, even if you use a large diameter leader connected to a braided line. The black wrappings with metallic blue tipping give the rods a sober and very classy look.
These rods also allow you to cast your rigs with great precision thanks to their ability to accurately measure the forces transmitted during the cast, a specific property of progressive action rods. This same unique action that acts along the entire length of the blanks allows for better control of the fish during fights in all circumstances. In short, when you cast and when you fight with these rods, you recognize the Leon Hoogendijk brand, you feel confident and experience pure pleasure!
