The Angler Pro has taken Angler Paddle of the Year six times in the YakAngler consumer awards, and it is the paddle Bending Branches Pro Staff team members and competitive anglers reach for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVersa-Lok gives you 15cm of additional length for wider kayaks and elevated seating positions, plus infinite feathering. It is corrosion-resistant, built from nylon plastic and stainless steel parts, and the clamping system is backed by structural and cyclical testing plus a decade of on-water use. A carbon ferrule insert keeps the connection tighter and more durable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade shape is renowned for a silky-smooth forward stroke with zero tolerance for fluttering. The oversized blade is the ideal size for horsepower and control with heavily loaded fishing kayaks in trickier conditions, and the 100% carbon shaft is ovalized where your hands go for more comfort and control. The Bruiser pattern was designed in collaboration with local artist Taylor Berman and carries Lam-Lok edge protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVideos\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"video-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"video-item\"\u003e\n\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KrPltNpu68A\" title=\"Angler Pro from Bending Branches (Official Product Video)\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOfficial product video from Bending Branches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cfo-cols\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compression Molded Fiberglass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.25 x 18 in.
