Korda Kaizen Platinum Rods & Spring Bow Net Explained 🔥 (Carp Fishing Rods)

Carp fishing expert Danny Fairbrass REVEALS the Korda Kaizen Platinum carp fishing rods and Korda Spring Bow landing nets for the first time ever!

The Kaizen Rod range has been under development for more than four years and came about as we felt that we could develop high-end rods that were even better than those already on the market - despite this being a first for Korda, we have utilised the extensive knowledge and experience of our Team Korda anglers and product development staff to produce an exceptional range of rods.

Danny Fairbrass has a long association with rods bearing his name, and which he was involved in developing. It was a natural progression for Korda to develop a range ourselves that had all the attributes that he, and our other anglers, would be looking for from the ultimate carp fishing rods.

Like rods, landing nets can be a very personal choice. Aesthetics and function always influencing most anglers’ decision-making when purchasing a new item of tackle. Taking inspiration from the original Spring Bow, built by Dons of Edmonton in the early eighties. Our NEW version offers a super light yet super stiff 6’ reverse taper handle, a unique Aluminium JAG Engineered Spreader Block and stainless steel spike cap and the way it’s constructed means it floats without the need for a net float.

Available in 3 size versions 42, 46 and 50” and supplied with deep mesh as standard.

Having used these rods (12.6 4lb) for the first time today they are indeed very good - I’ve used most brands - and I’m very happy. The 13ft spod is awesome! Well done Korda.

Korda have been a pioneer on many products and projects, hopefully they will receive a good response in the tackle shops and sales. Thumbs up to the editorial and camera teams another professional production.

[garybaker]

The blanks look very thick compared to other top of the range rods such as Free Spirit.

[CHUNKSTV]

Fair play that looks a very fast recovery on the cast.. 👌

[addictedtoangling]

Fantastic video & presentation Danny., but at 61. I think my ESP
TERRY HEARN DISTANCE rods will surfice.

Danny is a fishing hero of mine, this is not let's fool everyone to think they are average rods for a premium, he wouldn't put his name to it look at all korda stuff it's all top draw and these are just the pinnacle of fishing rods

The comments on this video are hilarious! You don’t see videos on Ferraris, porches and Lamborghinis etc. with comments like ‘that’s ridiculous-I can drive around in my £10k ford focus just the same’, so why do people feel the need to do it for fishing rods? Accept that there’s a top end market out there for pretty much every leisure product and some people will be fortunate enough and willing to pay the price. If you don’t want to, or are unable to, pay for top end products then that is absolutely fine. Just stop blood whinging about it😂.

Good luck with the new products korda and I hope those that end up buying them thoroughly enjoy the ownership experience🙂

Says made in the UK on these rods. Are they made by Daiwa ?.

[gwl]

I only ever really use 2.75lb for my fishing will these be available.

[mrogy]

My question is ... will you stand behind your rods as does Sportex with their 10yr warranty?

[dannyboy_dannyboy]

So pleased you’re looking very healthy Mr F! You look so much better with a bit of weight on you boy! Rods look outstanding, wish I had a spare £1k for x3!

[matthewcadle]

I will stick to my Torrix rods, but they look minimalistic tho :)

Iv loved watching DF and crew over the years but I Couldn’t help but think how expensive fishing has become😢 I took it up as a hobby as a child because it was cheap, we had no money and it was the most fun I could get. After spending thousands over the years on tackle and day tickets -I can’t do it anymore and it sucks… £40 for a 24hr session on my fave venue, most place similarly priced. We need to get fishing back to its roots i personally think it’s got way out of hand now.

[dannyhoskins]

The price of these rods (and the spring bow net) is eye watering but they are premium products. You get what you pay for. Time will tell but If the quality of these rods does not justify the price tag then people will vote with their wallets. Maybe Korda will release a set of Kaizens on the basix range:)

[pauledwards]

I’d buy the dawia rods he used to use 🤷‍♂️(probably still does)
These - fuck that……
