LONG SHI LI

LONG SHI LI (龍石鯉) is a 4H competition-taper carp pole built for Taiwan-style (tai diao) pond fishing. HR pitches it at the tournament checklist: light, crisp, and stiff, sensitive on small fish yet strong on big carp. The blank is made with the NET-V II process for sustained recoil power, and a wide-angle rolling technique shifts the balance point rearward so the pole sits lighter in the hand over long competition sessions. Finish work is a water-transfer wrap of Chinese red over black marble crackle, a rubberized non-slip grip coat with gold-fleck accents, and laser-engraved aluminum alloy end plugs.

Five lengths cover 12 through 24 chi. The 3.62 m model weighs 85 g in four sections, the 4.5 m runs 126 g, the 5.4 m 176 g, and the 6.3 m 231 g in seven sections, with a 24 model above that; every length closes to 104 cm and the blanks are 99 percent carbon. It shares its spec ladder with the PAN SHI LI, differing mainly in cosmetics, and is aimed at competitive, club, and circuit events where a fast, firm 4H action does the work.
