Heddon uses exclusive—and in part, secret—pro- cesses, The key in this exclusive process is the high-pressure forming of densely woven fiberglass material. This dense cloth, woven with 90% of the fibers running lengthwise, Is tightly bound on procision-machined steel mandrels with ‘enormous pressures. Pressure-formed Heddon tubular rods. This pressure-formed tubular wall has tighter laminations, lighter walls but more fibers and greater strength, plus 16 more perfectly uniform wall thickness from butt to tip.

FES ET MiG Rk Heddon’s exclusive all-fiberglass ferrules ALL GLASS FERRULES Heddon's fiberglass ferrule is just that a separate ferrule constructed of a special weave fiberglass with equal amounts of longitudinal and horizontsl fiber. This gives it exceptional strength ‘and resistance to both breaking and splinting. It is a separate ferrule rather than being part of either the tip or Dutt section of the rod. Conventional rod construction, where one section fits over another does not give splitin resistance. The tip section is smaller than the butt giving a logical taper to the blank. This amazing ferrule whic Js guaranteed against corrosion, wear breakage or splitting is used by Heddon on the Mark Golden $0, Mark I and Mark Il series.

Rod action is achieved through a combine- tion of factors and their relationship to one another. Theso include the taper’ or the slope of the rod from butt section to tip: the thickness of the rod wall, and whether or not it varies in thickness and the amount it varies In thickness from butt to top; the Gensity of the material; and several other technical factors Heddon bullds four basic actions into ‘their rods: Controlled Flex, Power Plus, Classic and VariPower. These cover the requirements for almost all types of fishing. But Heddon also makes several specialized actions fer specific typas of fish Now here are the specific descrip tions of Heddon's basic and special actions and their characteristics. CONTROLLED-FLEX ACTION ‘A rod having Controlled Flex Action has a relatively powerful butt section which tapers rather abruptly into the tip section in approximately the first third of the rad. However, the tip section itself has a relatively “flat? or slow, taper. This gives a strong tip that tends to snap quickly back into place after the energy of the cast has been olivered. Also, the slow taper in the tip transfers casting energy rather quickly into the powerful butt section. ‘This rod action has a great desl of power—not to be confused with stiff ness—and makes a good all-round fish- ing action VARI-POWER ACTION Vari Power rods have an extremely large butt and an extremely “steep” taper throughout, The tip section tapers down quickly to'a small diameter end: whereas in Controlled Flex the taper is, more gradual ‘The rapid taper on a Vari Power tip does not make a tip that is fast. but rather one that bends easily and re- covers slowly. This rapid taper tip gives a pro nounced “bounce” when the rod is flexed, and since it Is limber. it does rot transmit the action rapidly into the butt. In fact, it tends to flex almost independently of the butt unless quite ‘ heavy load is placed on the rod in casting POWER-PLUS ACTION Power Plus rods have the same gen- ‘eral action characteristics as Controlled Flex rods: however, they are more powerful and designed for heavier fish- ing. Action placement, however, is the same, In general, there is just "more rod” designed to handle heavier lures and for heavier fishing. CLASSIC ROD ACTION This action hase relatively small diameter butt section with a gradual taper from butt to tip. There are no abrupt or steep tapers anywhere in the rod. Because of this relatively “slow taper. the flex is smooth and gradual during casting: and since the feel of the weight is transmitted through @ relatively straight taper. it is immed. lately apparent in the hand. And be- cause the flex is carried well down into the butt, fast and hard casts with flat ttalectories are possible, and greater accuracy can be achieved. SPECIAL ROD ACTIONS ULTRA-LIGHT ROD ACTION is light. extremely sensitive, yet responsive. and with a sufficient amount of hook-setting power. It easily casts the very lightost lures and handles the popular threadline ‘mono line weights from 2 to 6b. test STURDY ROD ACTION has the strength to handle any size specie of freshwater and selt water game fish as well. yet Is responsive enough to allow fishermen ‘0 enjoy the thrills of playing these fish twas cast %e-to 1-07, lures and handle 8 to 30. test line.
