Do you by chance know the weight on the rod? I’ve been looking at Irod but can’t find weight details.

The 7'4 H F Omen Black is a nice H action rod that doesn't feel like a pool cue and isn't tip heavy.  The yak version has a shorter handle by a couple inches.

If handle length isnt an issue and you dont mind spending a few more $ the 7'4 Victory would be good too.

I have the Omen Black Gen 3 spinning rod and I absolutely love it. I was trying to find weight specs on the casting rod but couldn’t find anything. Maybe I should just message them.

Contact IROD owner Mat Newman for specific weight.

Sold nearly all my fishing tackle last year or I would weigh it for you.

13 makes some rods that awful hard to beat for the price.  The balance on the 7'4 H F probably weighs about 5oz or a little less.  The rod isnt tip heavy and balances well, so as long as you have a reel that isn't too light its not going to feel tip heavy like the SLX's.

Falcon Bucoo "Super Duty" 7'5" Hvy/X Fast. $109. But it can probably be found cheaper if you shop around. I have their pitching stick and it's the lightest rod I own. This is not a technique that requires a very expensive, very sensitive rod. Just the right action and light weight.

Anything that has Falcon and Amistad in the description of course! Champion XP 735 is another solid contender.

I do love anything falcon but I wound up going with the Powell Endurance 735c rod it’s crazy light. We’ll see if it snaps on first cast or not tomorrow haha
