Here’s a quality telescopic fishing rod for carp fishers in the UK. These rods have similar test curves to the well received Crypton Tele Carp series of rods but in a lower price bracket – the Hypercast Tele Specimen. Specialist carp hunters who like to keep on the move will love these highly versatile rods. I love the quick take down and portability of these telescopic fishing rods. The only reason I gave it 4 stars not 5 is that the test curve is a bit light for me – but if you’re a keen carp fisherman (or fisherwoman) then you should be used to catching smaller fish and this will be absolutely fine. I totally rate this rod high for quality.

* Model: Tele Specimen
