Black Cat Freestyle Pro Bank Spinning Rod 3m 200–400g

Black Cat Freestyle Pro Bank 3m 200–400g — Progressive Power for Big Catfish

The Black Cat Freestyle Pro Bank 300 is a purpose-built bank rod for serious catfish (Wels catfish) anglers targeting heavyweight fish at range. Built on X-Solid Technology with a progressive blank, it balances raw power with the flexibility needed to control big fish confidently from the bank or groynes.

Progressive Action for Controlled Fights

The progressive blank — constructed from multiple layers of 24TON+30TON X-Solid Tech carbon wound on different axis directions — builds pressure gradually through the fight. This spiral solid blank design maximises both compressive and tensional strength, giving you reliable power transfer when a large catfish makes its run, without the sudden shock-loading that can cost you fish.

Built to Last on Freshwater Banks

High-strength stainless steel Seaguide guides and a Fuji DPSH reel seat ensure long-term durability under hard use. The laser-carved EVA handle with X-Wrap finish on the foregrip stays grippy in wet conditions, giving you secure control during the cast and through prolonged drills. A 420D Oxford Cotton rod bag is included for transport and storage.
