I have three of these rods and so far I have been very impressed. The weight is good for all day casting and they have back bone to set the hook in heavy surf conditions. I use mine in the surf for set rigs and for casting metal. These rods do both with a good price and a quality product.

Bought this rod and im very happy with it. My friend accidently threw the top peace in water is there any way i can buy the top peace instead of whole rod?

I have been using the medium to throw weights up to 4 oz all day. It brings in the fish and is more importantly an actual surf rod. I have seen lots of guys use salmon / steelhead rods in the surf but they usually wilt because they cannot throw the lead needed in bigger surf conditions. You need the right rod to do the job in all conditions and this one works for me. I have owned my rod for several years now and it is solid. Not one complaint.

Didn’t even get to fish with it. Bought this at a tackle shop. I took it home attached my reel. As I was add line to my reel keeping the line somewhat tight the rod broke. Shit happens right maybe it was messed up. Fine Il get a new one under warranty NOPE!! Gotta pay $50.00 for a warranty replacement. So now I could have bought a custom rod for the price of this POS. Never will I ever buy another ST.POS again.

Paid $160 at local tackle shop. Broke after 10th cast using a 1 oz spoon. Highly disappointed.
