The Carrot Stix is 30% graphite and 70% carrot material. By adding Nano level cellulose bio-fibers extracted from carrots into a super high strength epoxy matrix and then molding this matrix around a thin walled ultra-high modulus graphite skeleton an extraordinary symbiotic relationship occurs between the two materials creating a rod blank that's truly "unique" in every sense of the word

.Another first for the new Carrot Stik is a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) program which was used to design the blank. By using FEA while constructing the rod it removes "hot spots" or areas in the blanks that show a high propensity for breakage through color analysis and allows for the creation of a blank that is evenly stressed when loaded thereby reducing its potential for failure. The blank is then bonded to a fully exposed grip, no cork or Thermalon, to interfere with the rods sensitivity. With the Stik completed the rod is dressed with an anodized aluminum butt cap which provides easy access to the rod's weight balance port. Other components on the rod are TiCH inserts and frame and E21's "Maximum Exposure" split reel seat.
