Rod Series


Taransky Bamboo rods are offered in two series:

Tonkin Series - Made from high modulus, premium grade Tonkin Cane. Richly flamed for enhanced crispness and resilience. Powerful, tight actioned rods, for precise presentations and unmistakable bamboo feel and control.

Madake Series - Made from fine power-fibred, supple Madake Bamboo. Delicately heat treated to preserve natural lemon blonde colouring and fluid actions. Deep loading rods with smooth, buttery feel, generating deceptively high line speeds and managing drifts with long leaders.

The tapers and models offered cover a wide range of fishing scenarios, but more options are available if you have a specific requirement outside of these.
