Balzer Micro Finesse Cast The new Shirasu rod series has been improved: while the previous models were equipped with IM-8 blanks, the new series features slim, fast-reacting blanks made from high-quality Japanese IM-10 carbon fibre. This not only makes the rods slimmer and lighter, but also gives them a tighter action. Of course, the design has also been refined, resulting in some truly beautiful rods. In addition, the model range has been further expanded. Balzer Micro Finesse Cast This rod was developed for ultra-light fishing with baitcast reels for perch and trout. It allows even the smallest hardbaits and micro jig heads to be cast precisely to the hotspot and animated perfectly.
