Product Information

Full details

The NGT 9ft, 4pc Profiler ART (All Round Travel) is designed for mobile anglers who demand high performance without the bulk of traditional fishing rods. It excels as a versatile tool for both freshwater and saltwater environments, offering a 20-50g casting weight that handles various lure sizes and conditions with ease. While its compact, four-piece design makes it ideal for travel, users should be mindful that multi-piece rods require careful alignment during assembly to ensure the rod action remains consistent.

FAQs

Can I use this rod for saltwater fishing?

Yes, the Profiler ART is designed for both fresh and salt water use. Be sure to rinse it with fresh water after saltwater exposure.

What is the total length when packed?

The rod has a closed length of 74.5cm, making it ideal for standard suitcases and backpacks.

Does it come with a hard case?

No, it comes with a protective cloth bag to keep the sections organized.

What size reel should I pair with this?

A medium-sized spinning reel (roughly 3000 to 4000 series) balances best with this 9ft rod.

Is the rod blank fragile?

It is built with a high-performance responsive blank, but like all carbon rods, it should be kept away from sharp impacts and not high-sticked during a fight.

Troubleshooting

Sections are difficult to separate after use

Gently twist the sections in opposite directions. Do not pull with extreme force; if still stuck, allow the rod to return to room temperature or use a small amount of graphite on the male ferrule for future sessions.

Rod sections loosening during casting

Check the ferrules for dirt or debris and wipe clean. Ensure the sections are fully seated by gently pushing and twisting until you feel a secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely compact and portable for travel
  • Versatile casting range for fresh and salt water
  • High-quality SEAGUIDE reel seat for stability
  • Durable and easy-to-clean full shrink handle
  • Ultra-responsive blank construction

Cons

  • Requires careful ferrule maintenance
  • Four-piece design requires more setup time than two-piece models
  • Not intended for heavy-duty big game fishing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When assembling the Profiler ART, ensure each section is firmly seated into the ferrule with a slight twist to create a secure friction fit; avoid forcing it. After each use—especially in saltwater—rinse the rod thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt deposits from the eyes and reel seat. Dry the rod completely before placing it back into the provided cloth bag for storage. Ensure your reel seat locking nut is tight before casting to prevent any movement of the reel.
