3M™ Powerlux™ Composites feature a revolutionary technology that contains nano-sized spheres of silica so small, they are able to flow between individual filaments of carbon fiber, creating a matrix of strength throughout the entire composite. The resulting material enables designers to develop rods that are not only incredibly strong and durable, but also lighter in weight and more sensitive.Standard composite materials have lower resin stiffness and are prone to cracking or buckling under the stresses a rod sees during a good day of fishing.

10 Y E A R New generation high-end spinning rods containing Zylon At SPORTEX, rod building means a constant search for new innovative materials. The Carat Z is the first of a new generation of rods manufactured from a composite of high modular carbon fibres and ZYLON, creating a new dimension in fishing rods. This combination of materials not only maintains the rigidity, lightness and speed that is expected of a carbon blank, but combines these characteristics with the tensile strength and power that is typical of Zylon. The result is a fast-action spinning rod with a slim, light blank that is practically indestructible.

17 BLACK ARROW The previous Black Arrow acquired legendary status amongst anglers thanks to its outstanding dynamics and strength. Fishing fans all around the world credited it with securing the fish of their dreams. But in the pursuit of excellence and driven by the growing appetite amongst anglers for specialised rods, we have developed a completely new Black Arrow series, taking full
advantage of the latest advances in technologies and materials along the way. Thanks to a newly developed high-modulus carbon material, we have been able to make the Black Arrow even faster and more powerful; thanks to refined sensitivity, even the slightest pull on the lure can be felt; and, thanks to the extremely fast action, it’s easier than ever to react decisively to a direct
strike. Enormous power reserves, so typical of Sportex rods, provide the strength to bring even hard-fighting fish under control. It goes without saying that the high reset capacity of the blank makes for really long casts. The fittings for these modern rods include the newly developed FUJI Alconite K-guides, a FUJI VSS reel seat and top quality cork split handle.
The Black Arrow series is available in lengths from 1.8m to 3.15m, with casting weights of 5g-110g, making it ideal for all types of modern spin fishing.

The challenge when it came to developing this rod was how to improve something that was already close to perfect.

OPAL JERK
The perfect jerk rod for multi- bait caster reels Every detail of this rod – from the blank with HT Cross Winding-Technology to the Fuji LowRider guides and Fuji reel seat – is conceived for jerk bait angling. A continuous stiff action ensures targeted controlled jerking of the bait. These rods are active! They are not just the typical stiff sticks, which slam against the wrists when playing the fish. Thanks to the SPORTEX Balance System S·B·S they sit perfectly balanced in the hand. This series features three rods with fittings (trigger handle) for baitcasters and multipliers - 168 cm casting 65 g, 203 cm casting 110 g and 192 cm casting 170 g.
OPAL VERTICAL
Opal Vertical rods stand for absolute versatility. They are tailor made for all vertical techniques using small Jigheads for Pike, Pearch, Bass or Zander. The blank delivers very direct contact but evenly works over its complete length when playing fish. If you aim to chance your position on the lake these rods can also sweeten your day with a nice fish since they do a great job in light Trolling. And if this still is not enough versatility and you spot a fish near the far bank you just take a small Wobbler and cast - these rods playfully perform excellent casting, spinning, vertical jigging and Trolling. Opal Vertical series features two rods – one is 190 cm long and casts 19 g (Vertikal L) and the second is 200 cm long and casts 30 g (Vertikal M).

The new Drop Shot rods are designed for both fishing situations: the short versions for boat fishing, the long versions for fishing from the bank. The rods are build using the highly sensitive SPORTEX Solid Tip System. The whole construction of these rods, from the S·T·S full carbon tips to the slim, sensitive blank, which transfers even the finest vibration to the bait, is designed for maximum sensitivity in bait presentation. Due to the use of high-quality HM/IM carbon fibre material in HT-Cross Winding-Technology, these rods develop their whole power when playing the fish, so even large zander will be landed safely. Three of the four available models feature full-carbon STS-tips - 205 cm casting 10 g, 235 cm casting 15 g and 305 cm casting 20 g – whereas the fourth model - 270 cm casting 20 g - comes with a stiffer tip section for Drop-Shotting from the shore.

32 The new BRILLANT CARP A leader on the world market There is nothing that cannot be improved. That’s even true about our BRILLANT CARP rods, which have been hugely successful for years. Cutting
entirely free from the past, we have redesigned this rod completely, taking into account every request from our development team. Thanks to our new type of high-modular carbon fibres, the new blank has been optimised in diameter, lightness, deployment of power and action. With a diameter of only 12 mm at the handle, this rod
is the slimmest on the world market, and all with a weight of less than 300 grammes. Our HT-Cross-Winding technology has made all this possible. Compare your rods with the new BRILLANT CARP, and you’ll soon see what progress really can be made in modern rod construction. Design formats: length 12‘, 13‘ Casting weights: 2.75, 3, 3.5 lb

SPORTEX Carp Rods
Innovative Carp Rods for greatest demands „The only ONE“
One A truly unique new carp rod developed using our revolutionary new Helicore-Blank technology powered by 3M Powerlux© Composite – just like the highly successful Absolut and Hyperion rod series. This revolutionary technology is based on nano-sized spheres of silica so small, they are able to flow between individual filaments of carbon fibre, giving the composite extra strength. Thanks to the Helicore blank, ONE rods are extremely light and incredibly fast yet still tougher than any other carp rod. The highly efficient energy) in the Helicore blank enables
you to cast amazing distances, while the unbelievable speed means the blank casts without any vibration and comes to rest immediately. This characteristic means that long, precise casting is much easier. The semi-parabolic action of the powerful blank ensures the perfect strike at long distances, and the fish is always under control during the fight. ONE rods have a very elaborate and sophisticated finish, which is emphasised by the modern black FUJI Alconite K-guides and bespoke black coated FUJI double-hood reel seat. Thanks to this special reel seat, fine adjustments can be made to
the position of the reel on the rod. The 12ft models are fitted with a #40 first guide, and the 13ft model with a #50 first guide. This is probably the best carp rod we have ever made, but don’t just take our word for it, use it and find out for yourself!

Unbeatable when casting, without unnecessary subsequent whipping but in the typical English style, these rods were and still are the benchmark for success and quality. Starting from blank materials, which conform with the latest expertise in carbon manufacturing, to the refined HT-Cross Winding-technology and rod building with only the best and most functional components, these rods still set the benchmarks for the fans of traditional English carp rods.

The fame of the Specimen Carp series stretches back decades, and this completely upgraded successor is a gem of a rod thanks to its sophisticated design, top-quality fittings and improved carbon blank technology. The new “HPC” process has enabled the carbon fibre material to be designed to take even greater loads and be even more flexible. This
means the slim, progressive blank has enormous power reserves – perfect for tiring out fish quickly when the fighting gets going. The rods bear the load effortlessly and have a high reset capacity, guaranteeing long casts with absolute precision. For fans of classic carp rods, the NXT is available with a cork handle. There is also a Duplon
split handle option and for those who prefer short rods, two excellent 10ft options. The NXT series comes fitted with modern SIC K-guides, FUJI reel seat, and high-quality Duplon or cork handle (NXT Classic model). The two 10ft models, at 3lbs and 3.5lbs, are perfectly suited for river and boat fishing.

SPORTEX Carp Rods Catapult Carp: The new Catapult Carp, made of high-modulus carbon, has a semi-parabolic action and high reset capacity. This makes for powerful long casts that are right on target. It features top quality fittings such as SIC quides, Fuji reel seat and high quality Duplon handle. The tip is soft enough to provide sufficient shock absorbtion if the fish suddenly takes off, which prevents it from slitting free. An excellent carp rod with an outstanding price-to-performance ratio.
Catapult Spod 8 lbs. The ultimate casting machine! This rod was specially developed to cast bait across extreme distances. Despite its enormous test curve, it boasts a very slim blank, optimum loading performance and it rapidly returns to its neutral position after casting. This helps generate pinpoint casts over long distances, helped by the large, friction-free, high-quality #50 SIC guides. Using this rod, it’s possible to achieve casts in excess of 100 metres, while the FUJI reel seat makes sure the reel sits absolutely tight.
Catapult Marker: Guide sizes Competition / Catapult 2,75 - 3
A first-class rod for any angler wanting to cast to the perfect spot. The sensitive tip transfers the slightest movement to the handle, which means you get a precise picture of the structure of the riverbed as you fish. The powerful blank and extra large #50 SIC guides ensure the marker float can be sent out over long distances. A moveable rubber ring on the blank also means that the unit of measurement can be adjusted.

Competition Carp:
Original Fuji reel seat
The slim, high performance and lightweight blank of this rod prove it’s a typical SPORTEX creation, from the casting all the way to the catch. The powerful blank sets the hook even across largest distances. Still it is sensitive enough to carefully and savely land the fish
near the bank or boat. The SIC guides make for optimum heat dissipation and long casting distances. Thanks to its elegant design, the Competition Carp also cuts a very fine figure in any rod pod.

MORION STALKER
CATAPULT STALKER
CATAPULT BOAT
LANDING NET:
Morion Stalker is the shorter version of our Morion carp and has been specially designed for applications such as fishing from the boat or stalking with light tackle in the shore area. Especially on waters with dense vegetation and few space for casting this rod performs best. The light, slim and extravagant blank is very fast and its strong backbone perfectly works when playing a fish. The high-quality cork handle substantiates the classy look of the rod and ensures a super comfortable grip when fishing. The Morion Stalker is the perfect companion for anglers who like to be flexible to quickly and successfully fish various locations by boat or on foot.
Also Catapult Stalker performs its best in selective fishing by boat or from the shore at short distances. The classic, lightweight and very slim blank made from high modulus carbon material has a semi-parabolic action, which helps to quickly control the fish - an important advantage especially when fishing tricky waters with plenty of obstacles. The Catapult Stalker features SIC guides, a Fuji reel seat and a slim, full Duplon handle. An excellent choice when fishing on sight and at short distances - and a safe bet on the surface.
The Catapult Boat is something special. At 9ft 3ins long and with a casting weight of either 3 or 3.5lbs, it is ideally built for carp fishing from a boat. A slim, lightweight rod made of high-modulus carbon, it comes with a sensitive tip and features enormous power reserves. Like the Catapult Stalker, it has a semi-parabolic action, which helps bring fish quickly under control. The Catapult Boat also comes fitted with SIC guides, FUJI reel seat, and full-duplon handle. Thanks to its reduced length, this rod offers unbeatable control when landing fish onto your boat
The brand new landing net features frames of 42‘‘ (100cm x 100cm) and 46‘‘ (115cm x 115cm) build from extra light weight carbon arms and a break-proof spreader block made from tempered, glass reinforced Nylon. The fast drying and comfortably soft mesh completes this Sportex like premium set of Carp products.
CARBON-HANDLE FOR LANDING NETS: This 6ft light weight telescopic powerhandle is made from high-grade carbon for best performance and stability. Its innovative QuickFix Teleshaft allows you to easily extend and shorten the pole for best possible handling from shore, boat or when changing the net . The reinforced metal thread (British standard) perfectly works with spreader blocks and bait spoons for maximum flexibility and reliable operation.
„MORION“ LANDING NET This 1.8m landing net is made using the same carbon material and design as the blank on our much-loved Morion rods. It is available either as a one-piece design, or two-piece with a special quick lock arrangement. This means that the net can be rapidly taken apart for easy handling, for example for use in the boat after landing. The English thread arrangement also means that the net can be easily fitted with a scoop, for example.

MAGNUS CATFISH VERTICAL The first catfish rod with HelicoreBlank technology!
These indomitable rods are hardly heavier than a sturdy pike rod. Due to the semiparabolic action and the powerful handle you can pit your whole bodyweight against the fish, without fearing a break. The high-quality SIC guides in triangle design are extremely smooth, abrasion-resistant and dissipate heat. Design formats: length 275 cm, 300 cm and 320 cm Casting weight: 200 g
With a length of 275 cm and 300 cm these rods with their flexible, powerful tips are perfectly designed for playing the fish close to or directly under the boat. It is precisely here that the correct rod action is important, as many rods simply just buckle under and hours of senseless pumping begin. both SPORTEX boat rods, in contrast, work actively against this at every stage, so that the pumping actually arrives at the catfish. Design formats: length 275 cm and 305 cm Casting weight: 400 g
In length, action and casting weight it is exactly tailored to the demands of angling with buoys and pellets-riggings. When it is about not letting the catfish pull back a single meter, with closed reel brakes, after taking a bite, then a maximum amount of power is needed. This rod, with its enormous energy reserves, delivers this power into the water without loss and is rarely overstrained. The advantages of the HT-Cross Winding Technology are brought fully to bear. Design formats: length 330 cm Casting weight: 400 g
The new Magnus Catfish Vertical combines our leading technology with PowerluxŠ, the latest material from 3M, making it extremely light while still being about 30% more stable than conventional carbon fibre rods. The slim, extremely fast and flexible blank has been especially engineered for vertical fishing for big catfish. The fast, sensitive tip immediately signals the slightest take, while the powerful backbone of the rod makes for perfect setting of the hook at the first strike. Thanks to the enormous power of the blank, a fish will tire quickly in any fight and can be easily lifted to
the surface. The rods are fitted with a robust metal reel seat from ALPS and extremely stable SIC guides. The length of the handle, made of tough, top quality Duplon, has been designed to ensure the rod sits perfectly in your hand. The rods are available in lengths of 183cm and 215cm, with a casting weight of 20-30lbs.

A very strong yet slim rod, developed especially for spinning for large catfish. This long rod is extremely light and fast for fatigue-free casting and proper striking abilities. The special blank, made of HM/IM carbon fibres, can control and land even the biggest catfish. The divided forehandle provides additional power thanks to the better leverage when the action starts. The strong high-quality SIC rings provide for optimum heat dissipation and long casts with spinner baits.
Our special rod for buoy fishing for catfish in rivers and lakes. The sensitive tip signals takes to the blank with absolute reliability and perfectly absorbes strongly pulsating shocks of fighting fish when landing. The powerful backbone ensures reliable striking at long distances, and the enormous reserves of power help tire the fish rapidly, to bring it reliably to the bank. The divided forehandle provides for even better leverage effect when the action starts.
This rod was designed especially for the particular challenges of drift angling. The sensitive tip lets you feel exactly what the lure is doing under water at any given time. The rapid action of the rod guarantees reliable lift, and the powerful backbone helps you control the fish – fast. The excellent shock absorbing makes sure that losses are kept to a minimum, hugely important especially when playing the fish close in. The optimum handle length means the rod lies perfectly in the hand.

54 JOLOKIA Travel The new Jolokia Travel rods are an upgrade on the much-loved Seastar Travel thanks to a blank which gives even more speed and stability. The Jolokia Travel is the perfect choice when it comes to having an easy-to-carry rod on a fishing trip. Thanks to the five-part design, these rods easily fit into any suitcase or hand luggage. The rods have a semi-parabolic action, and with a length of 2.70m and a casting weight of up to 100g or
160g, they are ideally suited for catching all types of fish. The rods are fitted with saltwaterresistant SIC guides and a high-quality Duplon handle.
Expert advice of Basti Rose, Team SPORTEX, independent journalist and sea expert: „The halibut spoon for the big one – With spoons between 250g and 350g, whole bait fish or filets mounted at a short end-runner rig, halibuts are becoming aggressive and greedy. Only at the first test day, I caught two good halibuts and on top of that some impressive summer codfish.“

This new series of rods owes its name, Jolokia, to
Modern rubber baits or lures for sea fishing are frequently very actively guided. A rapid upwards pull in short bursts is what is called for here rather than the traditional type of playing on the lure. The Jolokia Jigging offers exactly the right action for this. Somewhat softer at the tip, but with a enormous backbone, it provides active support for you in guiding the bait, and provides the power needed to counter even the strongest halibut pull.
Top for performance, quality and fun Lightweight to handle and mercilessly powerful in the twist, these rods are specially designed for tackling cod, ling and their counterparts. As with all SPORTEX sea rods, the Jolokia Pilk is designed to be tough and for dealing with the unique challenges of salt water. The blank, made using optimised HM/IM carbon fibre technology, is formed from top-quality SIC rings, temperatureneutral, weather-resistant premium EVA and a sophisticated reel holder fully resistant to salt water. Whether fishing from a cutter, a boat, or from the jetty, JOLOKIA rods are the perfect companion. Design formats: length 270 and 300 cm Casting weights: 90 - 150 g, 150 - 250 g
A power pusher with a fiery design, with the emphasis on action Whether it’s cod, ling, shark or halibut, this series of boat rods has the precise weight class for you. Hard at the strike, but not, as is usually the case, ‘stiff as a broomstick’, these rods made of HM/IM carbon fibres work with you completely thanks to their superb action. Slim, light and with striking good looks, they are a highlight on every cutter. And, of course, the fittings are fully resistant to salt water. Design formats: 2-section, length 210 and 240 cm Casting weights: 20, 30 and 50 lbs Two versions for two typical situations: The 2.10 m version with 30 lb and 50 lb for normal depth up to 100 m and little drift and the 2.40 m version with 30 lb and 50 lb for deeper waters with more drift and undercurrent.
the spiciest chili bean in the world. A striking, aristocratic design, perfect craftsmanship and sharp twists – all this awaits you with the JOLOKIA sea rods, a series seemingly one step ahead of the future.

MAGNUS SPIN:
When it comes to fishing with heavy pilks and natural baits and lures, be sure to make this your first choice rod. The blank, made of HM/IM carbon fibres, has a semi-parabolic action, which makes for great sensation and great pleasure combined when the action starts. The sensitive tip means that every take is sure to be signalled, and the powerful backbone provides enough power for even big sea fish to be brought reliably on board.
The extra sensitive jigging tip allows maximum control and reliably response to the slightest take with an instant and powerful strike. The rigid backbone of the Magnus will easily control even the biggest fish and safely land it. Even the smallest nibble will be reliably signalled up above, followed immediately by a powerful lift. The rigid hand part allows for direct contact with the fish, and controlled play. With this rod, it’s you who decides which way things go, not the fish!
This newly developed spinning rod is ideal for catching large fish in the North sea, Atlantic coast or Mediterranian sea. The special high-modulus carbon fibre blank, with even more stability thanks to our HT-CrossWinding process, deploys all its power when the action starts, and, thanks to its strong backbone, makes playing the fish pure enjoyment as well. Thanks to the even better leverage effect, the specially divided fore-handle provides additional support when handling the fish, and the optimum loading of the rod makes even those really long casts no problem at all. This is the sea spinning rod for really tough customers!

SPORTEX SEASTAR
SEASTAR TROLLING This new range of light-weight trolling rods has been designed to be fished with downriggers, side-planers or indeed without any trolling aids. Even though we’ve utilised top quality carbon in the rod tip, it is remarkably flexible.
But the really special thing about this rod is the progressive action. The power develops steadily from the butt to the tip without the rod tip becoming unstable. If you are trolling deep for big salmon, giant cod or ferox trout, then this is the rod to have with you.
Design formats: length 180, 240, 270 cm Casting weights: 15 - 20 lb
The perfect combination of performance and quality: these sea rods are designed to be constant companions on journeys and reliable partners on trawler vessels. The high demands of sea fishing set the standard for their performance.
SPORTEX MAGNUS INLINER The perfect combination of strength, action and comfort Guide-less fun and a fantastic action, which, according to our Norwegian test fishermen, they

EXCLUSIVE MATCH L/M Our Exclusive Match rods have been completely redeveloped, with the focus on delivering an ultra-light, slim and fast blank. For the first time we have made a distinction between a Light Version (L) and a Medium Version (M) for an even more specialised range of uses. The very fine and extremely fast tip makes for a reliable strike, and the powerful backbone of the rod helps bring even big, hard-fighting fish under control. The high reset capacity of the blank and the narrow-spaced SIC match guides, set high from the blank, mean that long casts can be made without a huge effort,
even with light floats. Both models are available in lengths of 3.90m and 4.20m, with casting weights of 5-15g (Exclusive Match L) or 8-20g (Exclusive Match M).
RAPID MATCH
EXCLUSIVE BARBEL
These match rods are also entirely new. As with the Exclusive Match models, the blank is very slim and fast. And thanks to the powerful blank, even medium-strength carp can be netted with the minimum of fuss. The narrowspaced SIC match guides, set high from the blank, prevent wet lines from sticking to the blank and make for long, precise casts. The Rapid Match is available in lengths of 3.90m and 4.20m, with a casting weight of 8-16g.
This rod was developed to provide the specialist angler with the ultimate tool to tackle feisty barbel. When fishing for barbel it is especially important to have enough sensitivity in the rod to signal a bite. On the other hand, the rod has to have enough backbone to take the fish reliably out of the current. Thanks to a special blank manufacturing technology with highmodulus carbon fibre material, we have been able to develop a rod which is perfectly matched to all the demands of modern barbel fishing, including fixed-lead assemblies, feeder baskets or float techniques.
Thanks to two different tips, at 1.75lbs and 2.25lbs, you always have the right rod for the job. The balanced, semi-parabolic action means that when things get serious you can keep even the toughest customer under control.

EXCLUSIVE FLOAT LITE
Fine and light still water and Spirolino rods with not too-hard, but active tips. These rods are designed for use with medium-weight floats and Spirolinos. Due to the fast action setting the hook impacts directly to the fish. For this reason, the Exclusive Trout is gladly used by Hegenen fishermen, in order to fish from the bank with large floats. Design formats: length 310, 365 and 395 cm Casting weight: 30 g
The forerunner of this remarkable series of rods was the legendary Exclusive Trout. Decades of experience, and the utilization of the most modern carbon technology, have resulted in our design team coming up with an exceptional model, the Exclusive Float. Much more than a classic match or float rod it is perfect as a heavy float rod for carp fishing, for float fishing dead baits, or even for deep water nymph fishing. All this in a remarkably light weight rod. Design formats: length 365, 395 and 425 cm Casting weight: 20 - 40 g
The new Float lite features a blank that’s even slimmer and lighter than before. The black finish, the full cork handle, and the Fuji reel holder give the rod an elegant classic appearance, while the HM carbon fibres ensure rapid and powerful action with even really big fish when the action starts to happen. The very sensitive tip reliably conveys all the movements of the fish, and even with the longest casts this rod is a winner over its entire length. The size of the guides has been chosen so that a line stopper can slide through with no problem at all. This is the all-round perfect rod for all coarse fish. Original Fuji reel seat

BLANK GUARANTEE
The class 4 Diamond Fly was designed with the demanding grayling fisher in mind; the slim blank is calm and smooth, giving easy and harmonious casting. When lifting, the tip immediately passes on a gentle tug on the hook, with the result that it sets rapidly and securely in the soft mouth of the grayling. The parabolic blank then ensures that the drill-like impacts of the typical grayling attempt at escape can be securely cushioned.
The class 5 model, in 9 ft format, can truly be described as a well-balanced all-rounder. Even less practised fly fishers become hugely enthusiastic about the compliant blank. They cast narrower loops and bring their flies on target with more precision and fewer empty casts. In class 6, a perceptibly more dynamic spirit in the blank comes into effect, which transforms powerful double pulls into clean, precise casts with streamers or heavy nymphs – ideal for
fishing for large trout or barbel. Thanks to the extremely high-quality materials and a very clever design, the blanks in classes 7 and 8 are the absolute lightweights in their category, and are unbelievably fast and powerful in pulling through. Large pike streamers are rapidly brought to distance with few empty casts, and can be lifted from the surface of the water again with no effort at all, together with the line. Both rods are completely saltwater-
proof, and perform at their best under the roughest conditions – free of fatigue and with absolute performance.
