Black Cat Blade Rod 2.65m 13.6kg 355g Solid Carbon

Black Cat Blade 2.65m — The Universal Catfish Rod for Every Challenge

The Black Cat Blade combines a powerful yet lightweight solid carbon blank with parabolic action, delivering the perfect balance of fighting fun and lifting power for catfish of all sizes—from the bank or the boat.

Innovative Solid Carbon Blank for Maximum Performance

Developed in collaboration with Sven Dombach, the Blade features a modern solid carbon construction that is exceptionally slender and light yet retains the backbone needed to handle hard-fighting cats. The parabolic action loads progressively during the fight, cushioning sudden runs while providing the lifting power to control even large specimens. At just 355 g, the 2.65 m blank reduces fatigue during long sessions and offers excellent bite detection.

Versatile All-Round Design for Bank and Boat

The Blade 2.65 m is your go-to rod for nearly every catfish scenario. Whether you're anchoring on a river, drifting over structure, or casting from the bank, the 30 lb test curve handles everything from light baits to heavy rigs. The high-quality components—including practical guides and reel seat—work seamlessly with both fixed-spool reels and multipliers, while the discreet black-olive finish keeps the setup low-profile on the water.
