Previous Feedback
Comments: I was hoping that this rod was going to be better. I will have to say it is a little tip heavy rod. I hope they improve their quality control. The first guide down from the tip was way off, near a 1/4" off. Hopefully in the future Castaway can improve their rods balance & build quality. I ended up using Tackle Warehouse's great free return shipping label.

Comments: Best rods on the market for the money. The skeleton nano is the real deal. Super light and sensitive. Their customer service is top notch, too. Knox and his team will make sure you're taken care of.

Comments:I have always been a CastAway fan.Okay, I got that out of the way.I recently picked up the last 610 Med Fast TW had in stock and made it my new jerk bait rod.I just got back off the lake and yep, the rod is light, crisp and beautiful.The trigger on the other hand is TERRIBLE!After a day of jerkin' 110s, that exceptionally wide and pointed edged trigger about put me in the ER!I grabbed every other rod on the deck and pure comfort.Not this Skeleton.My choice is a return trip across country back to TW or get out the Dremel.

Comments:Best rod for the money! I've got about 6 of these in the boat right now. The sensitivity is comparable to any rod I've ever fished over $200. I've got the Mag MH (2), Flippin stick (2), Topwater rod, jerkbait rod and put them all to work. Caught fish anywhere from 1lb to 7lbs so they have all been put to the test. Easily my favorite rod in that price range. I'll definitely be getting some more!

Comments: The sensitivity on these rods is insane.For $129 I would put this against any $250 rod on the market.Light, durable, and allows you to fish all day with 0 fatigue.The 7' Mag MH casting is an insane chatterbait rod.Loads up and allows the fish to choke it!I have multiple CastAway's and can't say enough about these Skeleton series.

Comments:These rods are super light and comfortable. This has to be the best reel seat as far as comfort. Put a Shimano Curado 200e7 on this rod. I was able to fish all day without feeling fatigue. Very balance. Took it fishing and didn't catch anything bigger than a 1 pound. Cast great and able to feel every little thing my bait doing. Great rods for the price. I got the mag heavy and the med light.
