Abu Garcia Vendetta Spinning Rod 7′

The popular Vendetta has been upgraded with a new cutting edge design and advances technology for added strength and durability. The new design is precision engineered for a balanced feel with advanced 30 ton graphite that utilizes advanced IntraCarbon technology. IntraCarbon technology uses very thin layers of multidirectional carbon fibers within the construction of the rod. These layers provide an increase in the compression strength of the rod making the rod less susceptible to failure when the rod is put under intense loads. The 30 Ton rating indicates a superior grade of graphite. The result is a lighter rod with increased sensitivity. The higher the tonnage, the stiffer the fibers used in the construction of the rod. Stiffer fibers more efficiently transmit vibrations to your hand so you can feel more strikes. – See more at: https://www.abugarcia.com

Abu Garcia History

From 1921 to Today

In 1921, by the river of Mörrum in Svängsta, Sweden, Carl August Borgström founded AB Urfabriken. The company manufactured pocket watches, telephone timers and taxi meters. Borgström was a brilliant craftsman with a talent for light precision engineering; skills he had acquired during his years in the Halda watchmaking factory.

Unfortunately, World War II caused a sharp decline in the demand for taxi meters. Undaunted, ABU redirected its skills toward the development of precision fishing reels used by anglers the world over. That’s why Abu Garcia later received the honor of being chosen “Purveyor To The Royal Swedish Court,” a distinction bestowed upon a select group of manufacturers for consistently exceeding its highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.

Abu Garcia’s influence on the sportfishing community is unmatched. The company remains firmly committed to maintaining its industry leadership position by providing anglers everywhere with the highest quality, most innovative products.
