Not totally sure. I have used the Rocky for coho salmon with 10 pound test and it works great! In the video with my Hellbender breaking I used 6 pound test. It was a huge carp and I fought it wrong. 🤦♂️ But it was a great learning experience. Hopefully this helped.
Jeepers! Darn it! Holy cow.
Haha!
Killer! I've never targeted drum on tenkara but I'd love to! Good job on the thumbnail, btw.
They are a blast! Thanks Flicky!
Well, all I can say is it’s certainly different than trout in the Driftless creeks! Thanks for the entertainment! 😊
Haha! Yes, very different! Thanks Gary!
I got to get out and get after some of the carp around my place
Dude...... get ready for a fun ride!
Awsoooome! 😍
Thanks Carlos! Glad you enjoyed it!
Watching that HellBender snap in the intro made me cringe again :). The Rocky seems to be a beast of a stick....Tight Lines!
Haha, yeah! Same here, but I had to show the low with the high when targeting carp! The Rocky is very impressive! Thanks Elbert!
That last 1-2 feet from the net is the tricky part with carp on Tenkara 😆 I've had that struggle myself!
🤣 yeah they are fighters for sure! Thanks for watching Darin!
What's the tippet rating for this rod vs the Hellbender? I think the Hellbender is 3X(9.5 lb).

Thanks David! I want to say #10 or 12
