The Redlight excels at eels, pike, catfish, and other powerful predators. Its robust construction and high casting weight make it ideal for anglers pursuing strong-running fish in sit-and-wait or active fishing modes. The 100–250g range handles everything from heavy deadbaits and packbaits to large swimbaits.
Yes. At 3.9m, the Redlight is versatile enough for stillwater banks and river systems alike. In stillwater it provides excellent casting range and leverage for long-range presentations. In flowing water, the length and power help you master currents and keep tight contact with the bottom.
The three sections break down to a compact 137cm transport length, fitting easily in most tackle bags or car trunks. Once assembled, the blank functions as a seamless unit, transmitting power efficiently from tip to butt with minimal loss at the joints. This design balances practicality with performance.
Pair the Redlight with robust multiplier or baitcasting reels rated for the 100–250g range. For stillwater sit-and-wait work, a large-arbor carp reel or baitrunner is ideal. River anglers may prefer a fixed-spool reel with strong drag and smooth retrieve. Match the spool capacity and drag strength to your target species and typical bait weight.
The FTM Redlight is sold as a rod blank only. You will need to source an appropriate multiplier or fixed-spool reel, line, leader material, and terminal tackle separately. This allows you to customize your setup to your preferred fishing style and species.
FTM stands behind its gear with standard manufacturer's warranty. Details vary by region and retailer, so check with your vendor or FTM directly for specific terms. FTM also maintains a reputation for responsive customer service should you encounter issues.

The FTM Redlight is a robust, sit-and-wait specialist designed for serious eel anglers and predator fishers tackling heavy rigs in demanding conditions. At 3.9m with a commanding 100–250g casting weight, it delivers the strength and range needed for controlled long-distance casts and confident handling of strong-running fish.
Carefully engineered for endurance, the Redlight combines a sturdy backbone with manageable weight (436g) so you stay comfortable during extended sessions. The three-piece construction breaks down to just 137cm for easy transport, yet assembles into a coherent blank that transmits power efficiently from tip to butt.
Whether fishing static deadbaits or working lively presentations along streambeds, the Redlight's action works across a range of techniques. The high casting weight accommodates everything from chunky baits and heavy rigs to larger swimbaits, while the moderate power gives you the finesse to register delicate takes and set the hook with authority when a fish responds.
Carp-style sit-and-wait fishing demands a rod that won't tire your arms or disappoint when drama strikes. The Redlight handles both — it's equally at home on stillwater banks and in flowing river systems where you need backbone to master swift currents and confident drag management. With this rod in your setup, you're ready for eels, pike, catfish, and other predatory species that reward patient, methodical anglers.
