 RRP: £306 Year: 2006 - 2007 Description: The Full Metal Jacket has established a design protocol that many are now trying to emulate. Originally reviewed as "Stunning" and "Five Star" - the evolution to the current model brings further benefits by subtle changes in the precision manufacturing process based on improvements available from new technology and investment. The FMJ still leads the pack.
The design is radical and user friendly. It is engineered on the basis of the feed back loop from constantly pushing World Record distances forward. There are over 27 complex carbon fibre patterns used in the construction – all wrapped up in 24 chevron 6.0 ballistic nylon, set in a special resin matrix. This is all bonded together using Century’s high pressure curing system. The butt is parallel and 1/2" in diameter.
This adds up to a superb long-range casting and monster specimen rod. We have worked closely with our ring manufacturers And invested in tooling to create our special size 50 SiC butt guide, lightweight size 40-16 inters and size 16 tip guide. The benefits are quicker tip recovery, better deconing of the line from the reel, reducing line slap resulting in extra distance. All without increasing weight! Measured casts up to 235 yards and fish to 70 the tip is responsive and the whole rod subtly changes in action when deflected to absorb lunges.Gunmetal grey finish, special braided carbon handles and Frank Warwick’s brilliantly designed stainless steel ball butt cap. Etched stainless steel trim bands around reverse fit precision ground spigot joint.
