Nordic Stage Update!

[Obsession_Fishing]

Well it has been a massive few months for Obsession Fishing and the whole Nordic Stage crew...

In big news Obsession are heading to their very first AFTA show this year... From humble beginnings with the Areal range of rods we will be showcasing 9 full new ranges featuring a wide range of new rods for the Australian. Many of these feature cutting edge technology, not just more of the same with our logo. For example, the development team have been working on for years a new range using Carbon Cloth as opposed to Carbon Fiber. This material (the same material used in the production of Formula 1 race cars), after much product testing and refinement promises to offer a light weight, highly sensitive rod that is far less brittle than most carbon fiber (and graphite) rods on the market. That is enough of a teaser for now...

The Nordic Stage team has also been kicking goals right across the board as well...

First up Andrew has been doing very well on the Bass circuit...

After finishing up 3rd in the Hinze round earlier in the year Andrew battled tough conditions to place 8th in the recent Big W comp. All fish were caught using his Nordic Stage Areal Sharpshooter jigging Damiki Ice Jigs which in his words have been a sure thing so far in 2013!

Our Bream lads have also been firing lately with Nabs and Dell both placing top 10 in the recent Bribie ABT round. Dell has also been branching out from Skeeter play and managed to place himself 9th in the recent Hobie Redcliffe round.. Not bad for one usually boat bound!

Nabs has also been out doing a fair bit of filming with the Fishing SEQ crew taming some deep water bream at the 'pin... Andrew from Fishing SEQ will be editing the footage for upcoming episodes but here is a nice little teaser

Field tester Mick Hassett has also been doing the Nordic name proud. A few samples of some of the models destined for AFTA made it up his way. One such model was the Nordic Stage Amulet and Mick has been putting it to the test on everything from Sooty Grunter to Jungle Perch and Saratoga...

P.S. a lot more images and reports can be seen on Micks blog... www.micksgonefishing.com

Here is also some awesome footage of Mick's recent Saratoga session..

Another field tester Greg Carter has been trialling the Amulets in totally different terrains... Spangled emperor in Laguna Bay for example!

Fellow Noosa anglers and Nordic stage supporters Chris Locke and Tim Milat have also been putting Nordic gear under the pressure using the full Areal range on fish "technically" well above the classifications...

GT on the Gunslinger!

And a nice little Queenie on the Sharpshooter...

Also if you follow Tim online you'll note that those Sunshine Coast Jacks just never shut down this year... Tim has been smashing them on a regular basis using his Nordic Stage Areal Sharpshooter...

In this post we will also include a few cool captures from happy customers...

Ian Ferguson nailed this awesome yella recently in skinny water on his Nordic Stage Areal... Anyone that questions the stopping power of light rods may do well to check Ian's portfolio!

Thomas Vodli from the Gold Coast also had a good "first" impression of our Nordic Stage Areal... After purchasing his from Sporties on the Gold Coast he headed straight to the canals. A few bream into the session he was already happy with the purchase when BAM... A decent fight later a 70cm (or 60cm if you love the forks) length GT in the bag!!! Now that's pushing your gear successfully!

As always thanks to our team and customers...

We cannot wait to showcase so much more of the range at the 2013 AFTA awards!
