The third and final rod in the medium to intermediate range is the FG Future Generation
This is a fantastic rod and comes in five different models
There's four models in the 12' , a 2.75lbs, 3.00lbs, 3.25lbs and 3.50lbs and there is also a 13' 3.50lbs
All of the models 3.00lbs and upwards come with 50mm ring sets as standard and they are all Century SiC rings
To keep the FG as keenly priced as possible, Century have replaced the full autoclave technology with an advanced oven curing process, meaning that the FG is the next best thing to full autoclave
Starting at the butt end, we have laser etched graphics into the stainless, abbreviated handle, a 3k weave
Very minimalistic, not much writing on this rod at all, perfectly matching and absolutely stunning 3k woven carbon reelseat with Fugi hoods
It has plain black whippings, the 3k weave continues all the way through, you can see this is a 3.25lbs model and has 50mm Century SiC rings
That weave continues right up to the first ring on the tip section and then there's a spiral 1k weave all the way through to the 16mm tip ring
All in all, the Century FG has to be one of the best looking rods in the range, and represents excellent value for money for a fully UK developed and manufactured Carp rod.
