In Lögde River (Sweden) the locals call this type of rod a rake. Why they do that we don't know but we know what type of rod they think is a good rake. It's a short double-hand rod length between 12-13 foot and for a extra heavy line. The rod should be able to cast superfast sinking lines with absolutely no space behind you. This rod is just that! We tried to make a shorter rod that can handle really heavy lines but it should not feel too stiff. If you have conditions that is similar to the locals in Lögde, you can be the judge if we succeeded with our rake!

*Graphene is an allotrope of carbon in the form of a two-dimensional, atomic-scale, hexagonal lattice in which one atom forms each vertex. It is the basic structural element of other allotropes, including graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes. It can also be considered as an indefinitely large aromatic molecule, the ultimate case of the family of flat polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
Graphene has many properties. In proportion to its thickness, it is about 100 times stronger than the strongest steel. It conducts heat and electricity very efficiently and is nearly transparent. Graphene also shows a large and nonlinear diamagnetism, even greater than graphite, and can be levitated by Nd-Fe-B magnets. Researchers have identified the bipolar transistor effect, ballistic transport of charges and large quantum oscillations in the material.
