A long medium-light rod will deliver a heavy rig with a substantial lure to a distant slope – a treat for pike and zander that prefer to stay in deep water and further from the shore. It will cast it to the fish without much effort from the angler: the fast and extremely forgiving blank action does not impose demands on casting technique, and the increased ring diameter (compared to sports models) does not require the use of particularly thin lines. The strike will be secure, thanks to the blank's power and its considerable length, while the rigid blank's immediate reaction to the predator's pulls will prevent it from escaping, even if the hook has pierced only the very edge of the jaw. Fishing for pike and zander with this long-casting Aspen Stake is a pure pleasure.
