A.Jensen NIPHOS
De perfecte 'fast-action' hengel voor de zeeforelvisserij of het vliegvissen op groter water zoals forelvijvers, meren en reservoirs. Deze super snelle hengel maakt het heel makkelijk om grote afstanden te werpen met lijnen die een agressieve tapering hebben zoals de A.Jensen Quickshoot-, Vector- en Shootinghead lijnen. De serie bestaat uit drie aftmaklassen: #5,#6 en #7. Maak je keuze in het menu.
A. Jensen hengels behoren tot de absolute top. Het zijn lichte hengels gebouwd op de beste blanks. Heel fraai afgewerkt. En het allerbelangrijkste zijn de meer dan geweldige werpeigenschappen. Daar komt bij de scherpe prijs voor een hengel uit het topsegment. Dat alles bij elkaar is precies waar wij voor staan. Great Value, great fishing!
Vergelijk de kwaliteit van deze hengels rustig met merken als Sage, Orvis, en Hardy of zelfs beter. Het prijsverschil is echter wel groot en de garantieregeling (in Europa) is een heel stuk eenvoudiger, sneller en coulanter geregeld als je eens een hengel zou breken.
A.Jensen says:
The very well balanced NIPHOS rods are designed for “power casting”.
The goal was to make a really fast action and long casting rod, using top notch materials and fittings, but keeping the price at a very affordable level.
The result is the NIPHOS rods, and they have turned out just as we hoped, meaning you get a superb value for money with these lovely deep blue gems!
The NIPHOS rods are just tailor made for Scandinavian style seatrout fishing, Light tackle surf fishing and bank fishing in reservoirs and lakes where long casting could be needed.
The action is very fast which gives you a tremendous line speed. But it is not a top action rod. The full blank is at work when doing the longest casts. We get the fast action from the recovery speed of the blank, meaning the speed it straightens out again after having been bend, like a progressive action. This gives you awesome casts, that not only uses the power from the entire blank, but it is also much easier to control and get continuous long casts with, compared to the top action rods on the market. We have even added extra power lower in the blank for extra power when needed for max power casting or fighting trophy fish.
We have designed the NIPHOS rods using Advanced Helical Taper, which assures the rod is a great fishing tool, not only as “stiff” casting tool. While being a really fast action rod it is still a joy to fish, cast and play fish on.
The blank is beautiful deep blue. Wrappings are matching deep blue with metallic blue and silver trimmings. Oversized quality guides from PacBay, including their superb Titanium Shooting guide.
Cork is Topline 4 AAAA grade Portuguese cork.
The reel seat is a high quality skeleton type reel seat in black and blue, designed so it can be used in saltwater if you want to use this rod in saltwater.

About A.Jensen Flyrods
ONE OF THE TRADEMARKS OF THE A. JENSEN RODS IS THE TIME WE SPEND ON EACH MODEL BEFORE IT ENTERS THE MARKET. WE WILL RATHER TAKE ONE YEAR EXTRA WITH THE TEST TEAM AND DESIGNERS, THAN FORCE PRODUCTS INTO THE MARKET, THAT WE DON’T HAVE FULL CONFIDENCE IN.
WE DESIGN OUR RODS, BASED ON A PRACTICAL ANGLE TO FLYFISHING. FIRST OF ALL, WE ARE FLYFISHERS OURSELF, AND WE WORK WITH THE AIM TO MAKE GREAT EQUIPMENT, IN ORDER FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE MORE EFFECTIVE FISHING, AND MOST IMPORTANT MORE JOY IN FLYFISHING.
BY OUR TERMS A FLY ROD IS NOT JUST A CASTING TOOL, BUT A TOOL FOR FISHING.
By that we mean that it should handle both the casting and the joy of fishing and playing a fish at the same time.
Beside that we wanted to create rods, that are able to cast both long lines and shorter lines with full control, as this is one of the crucial aspects of flyfishing. With many modern flyrods, you only get the rod properly loaded, with a lot of line outside the top, and only from that point on will you cast with full control. We want our rods to load with short lines, but still, be able to cast long lines.
In order to achieve what we want we make a so-called “compensated tip”, meaning a tip that loads quickly. One could make the top of softer material, but then you get a rod action, that feels strange when casting.
Instead, we use “Advanced Helical Taper” technology and thereby creating a rod, where the top of the rod loads quickly, without being soft. The “Advanced Helical Taper” technology means changing and opening the angle of the helical wound graphite towards the top. By using the same material, and still under the same amount of tons of pressure as the rest of the blank, we get a rod, that performs with a unique balance.
The quick loading top has many benefits. When fishing shorter lines, such as when fishing dries and nymphs, you will have more accuracy and control.
When fishing stillwaters, both lakes and salts, you will with much ease be able to shoot the first meters of line, as the rod actually cast the line right from the first false cast. There is no “waving” the rod, to get so much line out, that the rod actually loads and casts. Your casting strokes will be more balanced, as you get the rhythm right from the start of the cast. It will simply put feel easier. On top of that, the rod is a light and sensitive instrument, and an absolute joy to play a fish on. This brings us back to the where we started – We want to make a fishing rod, not just a casting rod.
