The Nash Dot is a premium spod rod offered at a more affordable price than most top-end alternatives, available in 12ft and 13ft lengths with a 5lb test curve and a casting weight up to 180g (about 6.5oz).
It is built on a fast-recovery 1k-finish carbon blank with a strong strength-to-weight ratio.
It doubles as a marker rod, with 30cm and 60cm depth measures on the butt. Fittings include an abbreviated hi-grip Japanese shrink butt, a matt black Fuji reel seat, and American Tackle Vortex Air reversed guides with a 50mm butt ring and 16mm anti-frap tip.
