Comments: Well, I don't like to write many reviews, but this rod is something else and not in a good way. I bought this rod in a 6'10 ml to drop shot and ned rig, and it is hands down one of the worst rods I've ever used. I have rods ranging from literally $10 to well over 300, and I'd put this is one of the worst rods I've ever used. Honestly, you couldn't pay me to use this rod it's so bad. I could be forced to use it to live and still might not use it. This rod is a total brick with 0 tip sensitivity for a drop shot or a ned rig. I was throwing 1/4 to 1/2 and still couldn't detect bites. I hated this so much I gave it to my dad and even he, who usually uses mono line on a $20 berkley cherrywood rod, yelled at me and threw down the rod telling me it sucked and he couldn't feel anything with it. Maybe certain other models of this rod are OK, but the 6'10 ml is hands down in the my tier of absolute worst rods I have ever touched. Go spend a little extra money and get a phenix feather light, you'll thank me later.

Comments: Was looking to get into medium light, light tackle rods and saw a YouTuber video on it. Saw the specs and bought it. Ordering was easy and it was delivered on time. Paired it with a small Johnny Morris spinning reel and it is silent. Took it kayak fishing and caught some spotted trout. Very fun to use the fight is different when using light tackle and the Rod handled great would buy again.

Comments: I fished with my buddies V3 several times-had to have one/ good price well balanced rod-mono slides thru no sound. the rod handle area (all) is made of some kind of material that makes you want to touch or grip it-not tacky but feels like an expensive putter grip. -the cosmetic effect is cool-fancy looking rod.

Comments: Great rod that in my opinion was inexpensive and I combined with their $29.99 13 white spinning reel. It is a great look and you have a tremendous spinning rod. Not a lot of money but I have caught a ton of fish on this rod already. Well worth the money

Comments: It's crazy how light and sensitive this rod is for the money. I have the 7'6 and use it for hair jigs and spybaita. It throws light baits very well
