ALX Zolo rods

[Topwaterdude]

I been reading post and seeing videos on ALX Zolo rods ,never tried one before I was hoping someone could tell me what GLoomis series rod would you compare it to? Thanks!

 

 

PS Looking to get a new worm rod currently using Dobyns fury which is nice but I was thinking of upgrading.

ALX Zolo sensitivity is a comparable to an IMX Pro, but a little less responsive from my experience. The build quality is good and they feel good. There are a lot of great rods in the price range, so just research around and I'm sure you'll find something you like.

 I would contact Alex at ALX and ask him your questions and a feel for custom support.

I fish ALX custom built rods that are equal to Loomis NRX series rods at 1/2 the price, haven't fished the off the shelf Zolo series rods. I know Zolo uses Kagin micro guides, lighter over all weight then Dobyns rods, both have and have an excellent warranty and customer service.

I just received a Zolo in the mail yesterday and fished it.  Excellent rod build, light, sensitive.  Much more so than Dobyns (in terms of weight/sensitivity).  Most similar to Kistler Helium but a couple bucks less.
