Preston Innovations Euro Carp 1300 STR Pole
The Preston Innovations Euro Carp 1300 STR represents the next generation of high-performance long poles, purpose-built for serious carp anglers across Europe. Designed and manufactured by Preston Innovations, this flagship model in the STR range combines cutting-edge carbon technology with the proven mandrel of the renowned Euro Carp series. The result is a pole that offers unrivalled strength, balance, and precision – a true evolution in carp pole engineering.
Building on the trusted Euro Carp platform, the Euro Carp 1300 STR delivers full compatibility with all previous Euro Carp sections and top kits, making it an ideal upgrade for existing Preston Innovations users. Every aspect of the STR design has been refined to achieve five key goals: comfort, power, balance, compatibility, and precision. From the first moment you pick it up, it’s clear that this pole meets every one of those standards with ease.
Constructed using the latest generation of high-modulus carbon, the Preston Innovations Euro Carp 1300 STR is both incredibly strong and remarkably light. Its reinforced joints and durable section walls provide exceptional reliability under pressure, while maintaining a crisp, responsive feel that makes it a pleasure to fish with — even at full 13m length.
Whether you’re targeting large, powerful carp in commercial venues, deep rivers, or continental carpodromes, this pole delivers the power and stability required for every challenge.
One of the standout features of the STR series is the newly developed top kit system. Designed with simplicity and performance in mind, every pole in the STR range uses identical top kits, ensuring complete interchangeability.
The Euro Carp 1300 STR comes equipped with top-quality Power Kits in both black and grey (290cm), a three-piece 440cm top kit for deeper venues, and a 185cm short kit that can be extended to full length using the dedicated short kit extender.
Each top kit features 1cm depth markers — a thoughtful addition that helps you fine-tune shotting patterns and adjust fishing depth with precision.
The pole’s exceptional rigidity ensures outstanding performance even when using a CAD pot for precise bait delivery. It remains perfectly balanced and responsive, allowing you to maintain full control in any conditions.
The Preston Innovations Euro Carp 1300 STR package includes the 13m pole, two mini extensions, three spare 4.40m top 3 kits, one 4.40m cupping kit complete with cups, and a deluxe holdall for secure transportation.
