Marquesas are the perfect reels for tournament fishing or stand-up fishing with newer, stronger lines and fishing techniques. Marquesa is big fish stopping power in a very refined package.

O

The Marquesa series comes in two models types: a topless model for easy spool access and control, and a model with a top bar (T) that kite fishermen will especially appreciate, as well as the dial that allows custom adjustment of clicker tension. The top bar models (MA20T to MA50T) are pefect for challenging sailfish and the techniques needed to catch them.

The Fin-Nor "Marquesa-2-Speed" multiplier was crowned best new multiplier reel at the EFTTEX European fishing tackle trade fair in Amsterdam in June 2011, where it was also presented to the public for the first time. The reel, which is CNC-machined from an aluminium block, impresses with its high gear ratio but can also be used in its low-gear-ratio second speed for heavy duty requirements. Such requirements are also supported by the CNC-machined, over-sized gears and the drag with carbon discs as found in really large big-game multipliers. Overall, the reel can create up to 50 pounds of drag pressure. At just over 800-950 grams in weight, the Marquesa-2Speed is best suited to stand-up fishing and can be used for various other sea angling techniques.

Packaging this technical marvel in eye-catching silver and gold is sure to assist its popularity.

Sizes 40 and 50 also available with T-Bar.

Marquesa is precision-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, and features one of the strongest drag systems ever put into a reel — stronger, in fact, than many "international-type" reels that are much bigger and heavier.

The Santiago® drag system allows you to fine-tune your settings to your line strength and type of fishing. Fin-Nor recommends that customized drag adjustments be done with the push-button drag lever in the “FREE” position.

The drag lever offers a wide range of drag and activates your custom “STRIKE” setting, with additional strength all the way to the “FULL” setting.

The Santiago® drag can be fine-tuned over a wide range. It is designed for incredibly smooth performance from free spool all the way to total lock-down if desired.

You don't name a product Santiago® and fill the biggest shoes in the Fin-Nor product line without being totally ready.

An easy turn of the dial allows the reel to switch back to high speed for quicker line pickup

It is with total respect for the history, traditions and excellence of this brand, and with the greatest appreciation for the role that Fin-Nor trolling reels played in writing the history of big game fishing, that we took time and diligence to the extreme in designing Santiago®.

The simple push of a button puts the reel into low gear, offering you all the power you need, when you want it, to fight big game fish.

The flagship of the Fin-Nor brand, Santiago® is a bold testament to modern technology's greatest advances in fishing reel materials and design, yet leaves no doubt whatsoever as to which family it belongs.

I spent a long time looking for an affordable yet ultra-robust fixed-spool reel for intermediate sea angling. In the Rainer Korn Sportfisher, Fin-Nor has introduced just such a reel into its range. Without unnecessary high-tech frills that mostly fail when it comes down to it! A genuine sea reel with ultrasmooth carbon front drag – particularly important for rapid predators such as halibut, coalfish or sailfish.

With robust yet light metal spool and CNCformed metal handle with ergonomic knob for those hard fights. We have omitted the superfluous and fault-prone switch for turning off the anti-reverse from this reel. Who actually backwinds?

The Rainer Korn Sportfisher is available in the two most frequently used sizes: as a 640 and 650 model (250 m/0.28 mm and 235 m/0.30 mm). All reels are supplied with a spare spool.

The workhorse is equipped with 6 strong ball bearings. The gear ratios (5.2:1 and 4.9:1) have been selected to enable rapid lure retrieval while allowing the full power of the reels to be exerted on the fish during a fight.

I am truly proud of this first Rainer Korn fixed-spool reel! I hope it also lands you some outstanding fish.

RAINER KORN VALHALL

RAINER KORN TRAVELLER VALHALL

RAINER KORN EDITION For me, it is the realisation of a dream: To create a top-class collection with a legendary sea rod manufacturer. Fin-Nor is without doubt one of the biggest names in sea angling – renowned anglers of the early 20th century trusted in their masterpieces from the USA. Together, we have created a collection of high-quality, special rods with a passion for detail, which every serious sea angler is sure to fall in love with. Refined components such as the ALP-S reel holder and rings add that touch of class; an elegant, reserved design for an understated finish. My dream has come true. And now you too can live the dream – with the “Rainer Korn” Edition rods from Fin-Nor.

Rainer Korn Valhall I can only bow in reverence before this rod: so much power in such a slender design – it truly is a little masterpiece for large fish. Its casting weight range of 50 to 300 (!) grams has to be seen to be believed. The 2.2-metre Valhall is ultra-light and highly sensitive, meaning even 40-gram jig heads can be retrieved with perfect control. Should a 40-pound halibut come onto the scene, the Valhall displays its hard, raw

side: You would scarcely believe that this slim blank could harness so much power. However, that is exactly how I have designed it. You can fish with it all day without tiring. But at the decisive moment, it brings all the strength to bear that you need when a monster cod or halibut is tearing away at the other end of the line. The Valhall is also available in a 4-piece travel format of the same length.

Rainer Korn Special Boat Modern boat rods must satisfy a variety of demands: They must be light, yet powerful and sensitive enough to indicate bites and allow for an enjoyable fight. In conjunction with Fin-Nor, it has been my pleasure to achieve such a fantastic combination in the “Rainer Korn Special Boat” rods. When you see the name Rainer Korn on such a rod, you know that only the best materials have been used including ALPS rings and reel holder together with a high-quality carbon fibre and metal cross butt.

FN 20

The two-metre length is an optimal size – whether fishing from a small boat, larger vessel or a cutter. This is a boat rod that ticks every box for me: firm on the take but sensitive when it comes to bait presentation and the fight. The 20-lb version is perfect for fishing with heavy lures for cod, halibut or coalfish, or for light natural bait sport. The two heavier models, the 30 and 50-lb class, are unbeatable for fishing at depth for ling and cusk. The 30-lb version is also available as a 4-piece, 2.2-metre travel rod.

Rainer Korn Sea Spin If you could only take one rod on holiday to Norway and you asked me to make a recommendation, the answer would be simple - the Rainer Korn Sea Spin with a casting weight of 40 to 120 grams. This optimal all-round rod is 2.6 metres long and has a refined yet powerful action. It is perfect for spinning for cod, pollock, coalfish and small halibut. Whether fishing with rubber fish, twisters, wobblers, pirkers or even light leger weights for flatfish, haddock or whiting, with the Sea Spin you are equipped for (almost) every eventuality. It is also an outstanding partner for pike and large zander sport. At 2.6 metres long it is ideal for fishing both from the boat and the shore. A genuine all-in-one rod that provides so much pleasure in the fight. For those travelling by plane the Sea Spin is also available in a 4-piece 2.2-metre version.

Rainer Korn Sea Trout Spin For a long time I looked for the perfect sea trout rod – Fin-Nor have now made it for me in the Rainer Korn Sea Trout Spin - and the result is a force to be reckoned with. This 3.05-metre gem brings its sensitivity and semi-parabolic action fully to bear when it comes to playing fish large or small. The rod’s powerful backbone can catapult wobblers and shore fishing spoons into the distance. A perfect rod for braided line fans. The high-quality, understated finish will accommodate any reel. I am certain you will be seeing a lot of this rod on the coast in the future.

Rainer Korn Sea Spin Light For fans of light spinning, the Sea Spin Light is a revelation: ultrasensitive, incredibly powerful and the perfect length at 2.6 metres. With a casting weight of 30 to 80 grams, this fine little rod is ideal for light FN 22

Offshore Deep Sea

A range of boat rods with removable handles, developed for light to moderate sport on the high seas, e.g. the Mediterranean or Norway. Strong enough to tame even the most ferocious quarry without a fighting chair. All models impress with their perfect fight action and first-class finish, including ornate and under-whipping of the robust rod rings.

The rod for extreme deep-sea fishing, e.g. in Norway, where heavy weights are used and a normal boat rod is no longer up to the job. Combine an unbeatable carbon blank with the finest features and the result is an absolute gem for deep-sea fans.

Offshore Standup For light deep sea fishing, e.g. in the Mediterranean, we have developed this range of short stand-up rods. Strong enough to tame even the most ferocious quarry without a fighting chair. Their quality lies not only in their perfect fighting action, but in first class finishing with ornate and under-whipping of the robust rod rings.

Offshore Hard Work

Offshore Uptide Uptide rods are the perfect solution when using live baits and the angler wants to combine a powerful backbone with a sensitive tip for sensitive bite indication. Despite its bear-like strength, the Offshore Uptide impresses with its almost feather-light blank and separation into two pieces of equal length.

Farewell to the difficulties of transporting standard uptiders with a long tip and short handle.

Rainer Korn Inline

The trend in sea fishing is clearly towards lighter techniques with rubber fish etc. Fin-Nor has responded to this by offering the Super Pilk in two lengths and strengths. With an optimal firm action for precise bait control yet very light in the hand to allow long, comfortable sessions – and of course with bear-like strength for when the moment comes.

If ever a rod deserved the description 'ultra-sensitive', it has to be the Rainer Korn Inliner Light! Even the first prototype impressed me and my test anglers. Particularly when it came to guiding the lure and fighting fish with an extended index finger.

Incredible! Anybody who wants to fish sensitively cannot look past this black beauty.

However, when under pressure, the rod displays its ultra-strong backbone. With Fuji Inline top ring and Fuji CISG butt ring. The ALPS metal reel holder will hold your multiplier or fixed-spool reel like glue. The 2.1-metre black model with a casting weight of 200 grams is THE all-round rod for sea fishing. Whether pirking, angling with rubber fish or intermediate natural bait sport, the Rainer Korn Inline Light undoubtedly has what it takes to become your new favourite rod. Try it for yourself!

This rod has been specially developed for fishing for halibut using rubber fish.

RAINER KORN NORWAY RIGS

Rainer Korn Halibut Lead Rig and Halibut Lead When halibut are on the lookout for fresh meat, this rig comes into its own. It is based upon the Canadian salmon fishing method of “mooching”. The flow-optimised special trolling lead causes the whole deadbait to tantalisingly stagger to and fro. The large single hook is movable allowing it to be adapted to the bait size. The robust treble also keeps a tight grip on “tail biters”. When using this system with large coalfish (40 cm), you can always count on a bite from a monster specimen. Also unbeatable for large cod and big coley! The rig comes in 300 g as standard, with separate weights available in red or black at 300, 400 and 500 grams.

Scarcely any other professional Norway angler has accumulated as much experience in Nordland as I have.

This has been made possible by my job as an angling journalist, book author and film-maker. I have attended countless seminars and events, gaining a wealth of experience. A long time ago, I developed rigs for Nordland anglers, who also include Yellow Reef and Iceland anglers. Together with Fin-Nor, I have now developed a range of high-quality and excellently finished rigs that should bring you closer to the fish than ever before. Here’s to your success in catching ling and similar.

Halibut Lead Rig

Rainer Korn Jigger

Code

The invention of the jigger heralded tough times for bottom feeders such as link, cusk, wolffish, conger, monkfish and halibut. The tantalising action of the phosphorescent floating device and the closely positioned hook (baited with a fish strip) are simply irresistible to the sea predators. An absolutely unbeatable lure that I have used throughout Norway with great success and that always throws up surprise catches.

And it’s so easy to use! Simply hook on the fish strip, attach the weight and present near the bottom off a moving boat. Available in two versions: with a size 10/0 single hook or size 8/0 double hook.

Rainer Korn S(urprise)-Rig A rig that looks simple at first glance but has a certain something extra. The two ultra-sharp single hooks are not tied but looped onto side arms. This presents the hooked fish strips far more attractively than with a “fixed” connection. This rig is my S-system, my surprise rig, because it catches an incredible array of fish. It can be used at all depths of the water. The flashlight provides additional attraction, which fish further away find impossible to resist. Unbeatable for hake!

Search rigs with several hooks are the best option when it comes to targeting redfish. With this rig, I have paid particular attention to the hook shape. It is a special hook also used by longline fishermen. The hooks hold securely in the fish’s mouth and scarcely ever pull out. Tip: Bait every other hook with a deep-sea shrimp (cheap frozen from a Norwegian supermarket). Redfish love shrimps!

Rainer Korn Jighead Ling Special Rig This special rig will bring you up close and personal with ling and cusk – and fewer snags! The first side arm fishes some two metres off the bottom; precisely where most bites from monster fish occur. With one snag in most cases you only lose the lead – the side arm remains intact. The Ling Special Rig has already proven itself a thousand times over. Many guides in Norway swear by precisely this natural bait system.

Rainer Korn Big Bait Rig My classic: This rig is so often imitated – proof alone of how incredibly successful it is. However, with the Rainer Korn FinNor version you get none of the shortcomings of those imitations. Ultra-robust design with needle-sharp, robust hooks and 1.20-millimetre monofilament: This is a natural bait leader you can use without restraint. During my first years in Norway, I fished almost exclusively with this rig. Ling, cusk, monkfish, cod, monster haddock, wolffish, halibut – there is barely a fish that will not fall to this system baited with fish pieces. A must-have in any Norway lure box.
