Comments: Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow... Words cannot describe these rods. I ordered the 966 back in late November of 2022, and it FINALLY arrived about a week ago. I knew that these rods were hard to come by, and I am SO GLAD I got my hands on one. Matt Allen from TacticalBassin was right on the money about these rods for big baits. They load and launch big baits a country mile with ease, they're light for an 8' swimbait rod, they're sensitive enough to feel your bait hitting a pebble or a weed underwater, they load through the entire blank during a cast and they're comfortable to hold. I was worried about the "shorter" handle length (refer to handle size chart) compared to a LDC White Label (20" from butt to reel seat), but I honestly didn't even notice that the handle was about 2" shorter while fishing with it. This rod has officially replaced my 2 LDC rods I have (1 for hard baits [2-7oz], 1 for softbaits [3-8oz]. The fact that these rods come with a limited lifetime warranty, plus they're made in America is all an added bonus at this point. BUY IT! Your wallet may regret it, but it is SO worth it!

Comments: I recently purchased the 904 and have it paired with an older Curado e7. This rod is amazing, light, sensitive and powerful. As a shore angler, I can't afford having a rod that is too specific for big swimbait fishing, so for a while I searched for one that would fit for the job and yet offer some flexibility for other techniques, like throwing a frog in the evening when gets darker and the swimbait bite slows down. This rod is a high quality product and fits perfectly what I wanted. It worth every penny and I highly recommend.
