playmaker47 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Just picked up one of these for $99 at Cabelas. Love it. Way more sensitive than my $90 St. Croix Triumph. I got the Jig & Worm version which is a 7'2" MH. It is as light as a medium rod but has the backbone that is needed in a MH. This is definitely my new favorite rod and as soon as the budget allows I will be getting a few more! Quote
Megastink Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 I'm a Duckett guy, but I played around with those sticks. They are really nice! Good purchase! Congrats. Side note: if you paid $90 for a Triumph, you got ripped off.... Quote
Mr Swim Jig Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 They are nice rods. Picked up the wife one of the spinning rods, the plastics model. 7' 2" MH/F Very impressed with this rod... Quote
robster80 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 picked up the frog rod. i like it alot. very stout. love the grips Quote
Super User MCS Posted June 25, 2014 Super User Posted June 25, 2014 Why did they have to be white....puke! Grips do look cool, proven tech spec based lengths and actions from the top competitors! Quote
robster80 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 theres not much white on em tho just between the grips on the handle and then like 8 inches up the rod. the rest is matte black Quote

Super User tcbass Posted June 25, 2014 Super User Posted June 25, 2014 I got 4 (2 spinning and 2 baitcasting) and they are my favorite rods. Like the OP said, they all feel a weight less then then they are. My heavy frog rod feels like a medium heavy. Love it. The grips are awesome. Quote
Koofy Smacker Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 I loved the grips and the feel of them as well when I messed with them in the store. Then I really looked at them and the fit and finish on the ones that I was looking at was absolutely horrendous Quote
