Korda - Kaizen Green 10ft 4lb C
After the success of our Kaizen rods, we've introduced the more affordable Kaizen Green range. Although it's priced lower than our top-tier Kaizen Platinum, it shares many of the same design features and performance qualities, making high-quality fishing accessible to all. We understand not every angler needs or can afford the Platinum series, so the Kaizen Green is our solution, offering nearly the same performance at a fraction of the cost.
The Kaizen Green range, built with a more cost-effective carbon grade, slightly differs in power transfer and recovery speed during casting but maintains similar action to the Platinum rods. It includes eight fishing rods and two spod rods, all rigorously tested across various fishing conditions by Team Korda anglers. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, indicating the range's quality and performance.
Our 10ft rods, a first for us, are designed for specific scenarios like fishing from the boat and any other situation where you don’t need the length and range of a standard 12ft rod. The range also features spod rods capable of long-distance casting. Aesthetically, the rods boast a custom-built look with a matte finish, black whippings, and a subtle logo, complemented by durable, sleek guides and a comfortable, secure handle.
All models in the Kaizen Green range are equipped with high-quality Sea-Guide TDG guides, known for their strength, durability, and light weight. In Europe, the 10ft rods also come in a version featuring Sea-Guide BXTLSG guides with a ceramic insert. This special variant is designed to offer even greater abrasion resistance and smoother line handling, catering to anglers who demand the highest level of performance and reliability when fishing with braids or thin-diameter lines.
Danny Fairbrass's pride in the Kaizen Green range is evident. He emphasizes the goal of making high-quality fishing gear more affordable, ensuring that more anglers can enjoy the benefits of advanced rod technology. Looking at the Kaizen Green's performance, closely mirroring that of the more expensive Platinum rods but at a more accessible price point, we’ve certainly achieved that goal.
This range proves that quality and affordability can coexist, making great fishing experiences available to a wider audience.
10ft 4lb C
This is primarily aimed at anglers fishing for big fish on waters where a boat is being used, and offers all the power that you need, along with the advantages that a shorter rod brings for this type of fishing.
Christopher Paschmanns:
“I’ve been using the Kaizen Green 10ft 4lb rods since August 2023 and love them! A 4lb test curve on a 10ft rod sounds heavy, but I was looking for rods that can easily deal with reeling in heavy leads on braided line from long distances; that can compete with a big catfish, if I hook one by accident; and can handle big lumps of weed on the line when I have a big carp on.
“Initially, I was only using the 10ft Greens when rowing out my rigs and playing fish from a boat. Simply because a shorter rod is particularly handy from a boat. But later in the season I started fishing for a target fish in a hook and hold situation - just flicking out my rigs with an underarm cast towards some sunken trees. Also in this situation they performed very well and landed me that one special carp safely.”
