Rod Bassterra XTP LRF

The Bassterra XT+ LRF rods are a refined version of the hugely popular original Bassterra LRF and have been specifically developed for light rock fishing (LRF). The lightweight fast action High Modulus Full Carbon blanks are reinforced with Diaflash, have sensitive solid tips to maximise even the smallest bites and are fitted with high quality Fuji fittings.
If you get a big kick out of catching the small, almost exotic fish that live close to all European shores and want to take your fishing performance and enjoyment to the next, more advanced level, the Bassterra XT+ LRF is the perfect choice. These stunning lightweight models have High Modulus Full Carbon blanks that enable you to enhance the action of your small lures with surgeon-like precision. Diaflash reinforcement increases low down power for confident fish-playing when you are fishing close to structure and the super sensitive solid tips transmit even the smallest bites. With a Bassterra XT+ LRF in your hand you can be sure that you are fishing to the best of your ability and maximising your enjoyment.
The High Modulus Full Carbon blanks of the Bassterra XT+ LRC are very lightweight and have a fast action that is enhanced with Diaflash reinforcment to give the rods the correct action, responsiveness and casting performance required when fishing ultra lightweight lures. You can cast small spinners and other hardbaits deceptively well, or as an alternative fish a soft plastic close to shore with supreme precision, thanks to the sensitive solid tips. Fitted with corrosion resistant Fuji Stainless Steel Fazlite guides, which work perfectly with fine braid or mono reel lines, all models are fitted with a Fuji TVS reel seat and a split grip EVA handle. Available in four models from Ultra Light 2.05m (0.5-8g casting weight) for super sensitive situations up to a Medium Light 2.55m(4-19g casting weight) for more demanding situations where slightly bigger lures and a longer length is preferred.

TECHNOLOGY

DIA FLASH
DIAFLASH_RD
DIA FLASH

DIAFLASH is a reinforced structure that prevents twisting of the butt section in situations where high-intensity is applied, for example during casting and fighting with fish. Due to the effect of DIAFLASH it becomes possible to convey the pulling power of the angler to the target fish while minimizing the loss of energy by flexing of the butt section.
