Comments: excellent spinning rod, Iam an Abu Garcia fan for many years. I have never had any complaints about Abu Carcia products. I use it for surface lures like Rapala. Its light and easy on your wreck. I would like one in 5' - 5 1/2-foot range.

Comments: Great rod, got tto use it for the first time yesterday. It's perfect for throwing a wacky worm.

Comments: Like the rod -7' medium. Paired it with a REVO 2X40 spinning reel for bass fishing. Casts well and does well with the lure weight and line it's rated for. Pulled in some bass already and was pleased with the sensitivity and performance. This rod was an addition to my spinning rod arsenal.

Comments: Bought the 6'6m for my gf and so far I am very impressed with it. It's very light, good sensitivity for the price and handle length is perfect.

Comments: Great rod! I'm giving this review on behalf of my brother, to whom I gifted this rod paired with a Daiwa Tatula 2000... great pairing. He is short and wanted a shorter rod because there's usually three of us and he always fishes from the middle of the boat. The shorter rod allows him better casting and fishing control from the middle. He loves the action and the overall feel of the rod, usually for dropshot and ned / neko rigs. He's already christened it with a few 2lbers and just waiting for the big one!
From: Nate: Folsom, CA 4/15/22
Comments: Honestly not the biggest fan of it, the casting distance isn't any better than a cheap rod of mine, the guides seem a bit too small even for 8lb fluoro to cast through. 3/5
From: Tyler : Arizona 11/22/21

Comments: I've got the 6'-5" medium and 7'-0" medium. Both are fantastic rods for the price. Lightweight with nice sensitivity and enough backbone for a good hookset. I highly recommend this rod.
From: Ashley: Belton, TX 4/2/21
Comments: Ordered this rod in 7 ft MH, this is a true medium heavy with a fast tip. Paired it up with a Lews custom speed spin reel and combo balances out well. This will be my senko and small swimbait rod. Only down side is this rod does have what I consider micro guides which makes braid to leader tough if not impossible.
From: Wayne: VA 3/28/21
Comments: Can't say enough about this rod. This has to be the most sensitive rod I've ever owned. Using 10lb braid the casting ability is unbelievable. Definitely looking at purchasing another cause I just can't get enough of how well this performed. Way above my expectations!

Comments: This new version of the Veritas rod is a winner. Very light weight, strong and sensitive.
From: Unknown: Huntsville, AL 1/29/21
Comments: Amazing rod. Very light but yet feels very strong. Use this rod for trout and feels very comfortable and handles the fish very well.
