LL Carolina Special – the ultimate rod for Carolina rigs

The Evergreen Kaleido Serpenti TKSS-76UL/XM-LTD "LL Carolina Special" is a highly specialized rod designed to bring out 100% of a Carolina rig’s potential.

Perfect for demanding conditions

Whether in summer or fall tournaments or for private fishing, a Carolina rig with a long leader often makes the difference.

• ■ Casts small, lightweight worms far and delivers them to deep schools of fish.

• ■ Drops quickly to the bottom, then lets the worm pause and slowly sink or suspend – an irresistible trigger for bites.

• ■ Excels with floating Carolina rigs and elastomer worms as well.

• ■ The tapping sound of the sinker against rocks further enhances attraction.

Its long casting ability also makes it highly effective for modern techniques like live sonar fishing.

Why choose the LL Carolina Special?

Carolina rigs vary from short 20 cm leaders to those over 1 meter. This rod is designed to handle all types:

• ■ Traditional guided Carolina rig

• ■ Advanced three-prong Carolina rig

• ■ Carolina rig with swivel

Built especially for anglers who know the challenges of long leaders, this rod is a true game-changer.

Construction & Features 

• ■ Length: 7’6’’ (two-piece, mid-joint) – perfect for handling extra-long leaders.

• ■ Tip action: sensitive, flexible, highly precise for detecting the faintest bites.

• ■ Butt section: lightweight yet powerful, delivering strong hooksets even at distance.

• ■ Tube-tip design: reduces sag compared to solid tips, improving cast accuracy and responsiveness.

The result is a unique combination of sensitivity, casting distance, and rig control that can’t be achieved by simply extending a standard rod.

Performance on the water

• ■ Long, accurate casts despite leader-induced delays.

• ■ Effortless obstacle management thanks to the crisp, non-sagging tubular tip.

• ■ Detects even the slightest pickup from cautious bass before they spit the worm.

• ■ Provides the leverage and power needed for solid hooksets with long leaders.

Katsutaka Imae  himself has relied on this concept for over 10 years, proving the enduring strength of Carolina rigs and the necessity of the LL Carolina Special.
