Balzer 71 Grad North Ultra Heavy Pilk, 2,15m 150-400g Pilkrute
Built for serious saltwater action in Norwegian waters and beyond, this 2.15 m pilking rod handles big lures and hard-fighting fish without breaking a sweat. Pair it with a large fixed-spool reel and you're ready for whatever the north throws at you.
The blank is constructed from High Modulus IM-12 carbon fibre, combining a light feel with the backbone needed to work heavy pilks and control powerful bottom-dwelling predators. The material delivers crisp bite detection even at depth, so you stay connected to what's happening at the other end of the line.
A FUJI reel seat keeps your reel locked firmly in place under load, while underwound Titanium SIC (Silicon Carbide) guides protect your line and run smoothly whether you're using mono or braid. The split Duplon grip offers a secure, comfortable hold in wet and cold conditions — exactly what you need on a Norwegian boat deck.
This rod is currently available in a single configuration. The specs below map directly to typical North Sea and Norwegian fjord pilking scenarios:
