Samurai CG3 Estuary Series
Samurai Estuary Series
CG3 blanks were designed using the experience gained from many years of fishing in Australian conditions, for Australian fish species and the know how built on decades of blank design, manufacture and rod building. CG3 blanks have been built using advanced materials and manufacturing techniques delivering task specific blanks suited for, and built for, local conditions. Each individual CG3 rod blank goes through multiple prototypes, to produce a specific action, depending on the anticipated primary use of the final built product. Rods have been built out of every blank to test them in the field before they go into full production. Along the way, each-and-every blank is tested across a pre-determined set of variables to ensure they are uniformly straight, have uniform tip and butt diameters and are equally light. That way,each item in a model range is the same, with specific strength to weight ratios needed for the intended task.
