Berkley Amp Rods - 2016 models

[ghost]

The new Amp rods have a camo Eva grips, and look real good.

Just wondering if anyone bought these new Amp rods what you think.

i bought a 2 piece UL to keep in my truck and i'm pretty sure it's the camo grip you speak of, it's the one my little nephew is holding here.  i had bought a different rod, but REALLY liked the action on this one as it wasn't a wet noodle for an UL rod.  seems pretty well made for my intended use for it.  i've already caught a few brown and brook trout on it myself and it performed well.

Although I don't have one of the new ones, used to use their older model. It looks like they revamped the look, and expanded the line. I was really impressed with their first generation rods for the price they were great rods, but they came in a very limited selection and all had a mod-fast taper if I remember right. Their mod-fast is more like a moderate action in most rods. It looks like this new gen has a straightened out trigger which was a problem on the first one. They had a mean hook to them that I took some sandpaper to on mine because it'd dig into your finger.
