    Trae Bunkley (Alvin, US)
    Kinetic - 7'0" Medium Spinning Mod-Fast

    The Kinetic - 7'0" Medium Spinning Mod-Fast is an outstanding rod. This is my go to rod when I get to a spot and want to cover a lot of water quickly. I rig it with a Vudu Shrimp under a Woodie Popping Cork and am able to cast all day. It's very balanced and durable, a must have for any saltwater angler.

    Kinetic - 7'6" Medium Light Casting Mod-Fast
    Leonard Schiavon (Pittsburgh, US)
    Super light and just the right action

    I looked long and hard to find a 7’6” med Lt casting rod. Purchased this rod to throw small cranks and tubes for smallmouth bass here in Western PA rivers. Paired it with a Revo and 10# Pline Fluoroclear and the rod performs flawlessly. Thank you for a great product.
