Stalking Rods

We offer rods to cover all types of stalking and floater fishing from 6' Tree Creepers, specialist rods for Boat Carping and dedicated surface fishing tools. These are available in three ranges to match the carp rod series, the Hi-'S' and E-Class ranges are faster in action and feature very soft, responsive tips whilst the 'S' Range is more parabolic for those who prefer the more traditional action.

The Hi-'S' Creeper Rods

There are three rods in the range built with the same 40t Low Resin Carbon as the carp rod range. The rods are finished with our 1k Clone reel seat, S-Lite guides and full cork handles with stainless steel fittings as standard. The 10’ 2.75lb is suitable to all round stalking, there is a stepped up version which at 3.25lb test is also very suitable for boat carp fishing and an 11’ Floater rod.

HAND BUILT IN THE U.K.
All these rods are hand built in the U.K. and can be built with different handles or other custom build options.

'S' Range Creeper Rods

Built from the Low Resin 36t carbons as used on the 'S'-Range carp rods and with the 'Perdurable' blank finish these rods are extremely light, yet strong with very smooth actions and subtle tips. Comprising 4 models all are built with high quality full cork handles and our Clone seat in 3k with isotope and stainless steel fittings.

The 'S'-Range Bank Creeper at 10' makes a lovely all-round stalking rod and its soft, forgiving tip will free-line baits in the margins and cope with heavy lunges of big fish close in. The 'S'-Range Bank Creeper 10' S.U. has been designed for landing carp from a boat or for heavier stalking work. The shorter length is ideal for playing fish when afloat.

The 8'6" Margin Creeper 'S' makes an ideal rod to keep in the boot for those just in case moments and for the more confined spaces in between trees, whilst the 6' Tree Creeper 'S' is ideal when you are really in the undergrowth for 'hit and hold' fishing.

HAND BUILT IN THE U.K.
All the above can be built with full cork, full EVA or full shrink for a small additional cost.

'E' Class Creeper Rods

The use of 40t carbon insures blanks are light in weight yet powerful and responsive and with the 'Perdurable' blank finish will last a lifetime. All models are built with high quality full EVA handle, a Fuji DPS-M18 seat and stainless steel fittings.

The Surface Creeper is a dedicated floater rod designed with a very soft, sensitive tip to handle small controllers and light nylon hook links and at 11' it is still a useful stalking rod especially when free-lining. The Bank Creeper 10' has an effective test curve around 2½lb and with its soft tip easily handles the lunges of big fish. The Bank Creeper 'E' 10' S.U. with a test of around 3lb is ideal for boating out baits and playing and landing carp from the boat. The Margin Creeper 8'6" is ideal for the very mobile angler and doubles up as a useful lure rod for the all-rounder. The Tree Creeper, on the other hand, is designed for fishing in the deep undergrowth and poking through holes in trees.

All the above can be built with full cork, full EVA or full shrink for a small additional cost.

"Whether I'm launching them 100 yards plus or placing them in the edge, Free Spirit rods are like an extension of my own arm. Perfect!"
