The action is practically identical to that of the Nano Zero, more parabolic than the "matched" One. It adds a couple of meters to the Nano One's casting range, but its main advantage lies elsewhere. With the Nano Long, you can work microjig rigs up to 3 grams the same way the Zero can with half-gram jigs. Tap, swing, and create varying "itches." These nanojig techniques disenchant passive perch and give the rod's owner an advantage in intelligent fishing when there's generally no bite. And if the Zero's power isn't enough for your nanojig needs, feel free to choose the Long. With thin line, monofilament, fluorocarbon, or ester within its test range, this spinning rod will give you a new fishing experience.
