I have bought the 9 ' before and it was great. I decided to try the 7 ' and was not disappointed. What a great value

First impressions of this rod are good. I bought the 9 ' combo in the blue camo. The quality is better than I imagined. The rod is sensitive and has good action to the tip. The reel is bigger than I expected and was prespooled with monofilament line. For anyone wondering the 9 ' combo is medium heavy power with medium action. It is rated for 12- 25 pound line and can cast 3/4 oz to 2 1/2 oz weights.
