Abu Garcia Fränstam Signature Perch 2.18m 5–25g — Precision for Modern Perch Fishing

Designed by Tobias Fränstam, this 2.18 m casting rod delivers the fast, responsive action you need to excel at modern perch techniques with finesse lures.

Designed by a Tournament-Winning Expert

Tobias Fränstam is a multiple-tournament-winning Swedish pro angler and fish biologist who shaped every detail of this rod. His expertise ensures the blank's extra-fast taper perfectly matches the demands of contemporary perch fishing, giving you the sensitivity and hookset power that competition-proven techniques require.

Lightweight, Responsive 30T Carbon Construction

The 30T carbon blank weighs just 120 g, reducing fatigue during long sessions while maintaining the backbone needed for solid hooksets. Lightweight Seaguide XOG anti-tangling guides and an ergonomic PULS-type reel seat keep the balance in your hand, while the split-grip design with synthetic rubber handle material ensures optimal grip even in wet conditions.
