Choosing a 
carp rod is an important decision for the 
carp fisher, and Pecheur.com will enable you to find the brand and the model that fit you. There are few criteria to choose: the 
length (mostly carp rods of 10 feet, 12 feet or 13 feet), the 
power (carp rods of 3.5lbs, 3lbs or 2.5lbs), the 
brand (Fox, Nash, Starbaits, Prowess, Free Spirit, Prologic, Daïwa, Shimano, Wuchwood, Greys, JRC, Mad, Quantum Radical…) and finally the model, that depends on the budget. 
For carp fishing 
from the bank, the obvious choice is a rod from 
12 to 13 feet and 3lbs or 3.5lbs. This will enable a serene start for 
carp fishing beginners. 
For 
carp stalking, a rod from 
9 to 10 feet will help fishing even in blocked spots and the rod is easily transportable. These 3G rods are also ideal to fish carps from a boat. 
To finish with, some rods are not concretely used to fish, but for 
baiting (bait rocket rods or 
spod rods) or 
sounding to know the floor’s characteristics and the depth of your spot (
marker rod).
