BOLO RODS
A name that has made the history of the Trabucco bolognese, which still today summarizes his great experience in rod design. In the bolo rod’s scenario, too much is said about casting performance and too little about fighting with fish, almost nothing about the protection of the hooklink from the risk of breakage by linear traction. Today, big fish are more frequent than ever in a fishing session, which
ENERGHIA
is why, instead of the casting power, we prefer to identify in the maximum diameter of the hooklink the fundamental characteristic of each rod. The series within the Energhia family are four, all sensibly different, all with perfect actions and with modulated response speed. Guides and reel seats are free from corrosion, to allow you to easily switch from the river to the sea.
XR BOLO
XR MASTER B - It’s the lightest action, capable of solving the most difficult days allowing the use of thin hooklinks. In addition, it is essential in the short range fishing or with light weight float rigs, one of the most exciting situations because fish plays its cards with a fast start. Recommended rig’s weight within 12/15 grams and maximum hooklink’s diameter 0,16 / 0,18 mm. XR ENER-LIGHT - Expands the range with ultralight but surprisingly powerful blanks, if compared to the slimness of their geometric profile. Thanks to the construction with one section less than the tradition, the weight has been strongly reduced, but the CX2 carbon technology grants same sharpness. Recommended rig’s weight within 15/18 grams and maximum hooklink’s diameter 0,16 / 0,18 mm.
ANTI GRIP SECTIONS In the rods produced with the computer assistance, the joint’s precision is so high that, when they are wet, it is possible to form the vacuum, resulting in very tight section’s locking. The problem is prevented by creating thin air chambers through cross bands milled on the male side of each joint, and this is one of the new technology specifications that enrich Energhia XR Pro.
XR FINALIST - Versatile as a top match angler, able to perform a mixed bag fishing at medium range, but also to quickly adapt to the sudden pull of a bonus fish which must absolutely be landed. The presence of the eight meters rod in the series is important to tackle fairly deep rivers. Recommended rig’s weight within 15/20 grams and maximum hooklink’s diameter 0,18 / 0,20 mm. XR ALLROUND - Highly reactive blanks, able to put in trouble Barbel and Carp, but also the more powerful marine fish. At first check, they give a feeling of power, but under load they draw a perfect curve. Great authority, therefore, both in casting and during the fight. Recommended rig’s weight within 15/25 grams and maximum hooklink’s diameter 0,18 / 0,25 mm.
REEL SEAT The plate reel seat is the best you can actually ask for, the tried and tested PacBay. Made entirely of stainless steel with protective rubber profiles, it is resistant to wear and external agents, and is ergonomic and stylish at the same time.

HI QUALITY GUIDES The guides fitted on Energhia XR rods take advantage from a special production process, referred to as PVD, English acronym of “Physical Vapor Deposition”, which allows to obtain a very high resistance to corrosion and aggressive agents. All this takes place through the deposition of a protective film on the frame, which seals and protects the steel without changing its structure, weight and technical specifications. All accompanied by SiC rings. A further step forward for rods with very high performance and more reliable in every part! THE VELCRO BAND A light Velcro band, supplied with the rod, enables to fix the rig’s winder to the butt, when it’s stored in the holdall with the rig on.
