Bought the mag heavy because it fell in a sweet spot with the 1 1/2 oz max lure weight. It feels right with that, at least, but all I 've done is handle it so far yet to fish it. However I had fished a fury for years and this is comparable, minus the cork handle which was n't great on the fury anyway. I looked at a lot of sizes of this rod. I like the guides, at least on the casting rod, and the rod is balanced and light. Has good specs for it's class as far as I 'm concerned and I buy a lot of rods in this price range. I was surprised the tip had the type of flex it did, it feels right. I had n't heard much called mag heavy, but I 'm mostly a medium to medium heavy fisherman so I ca n't compare except to salt.

Now on my 10th St Croix rod I can honestly say that you really get what you pay for in fishing rods. First off is the quality and the fact that they are made here the USA is awesome.

I bought the Mag Heavy to use it as a jig/frog/punching rod. BUT it has now replaced my existing med and medhvy rods. The sensitivity is significantly better than I expected. It actually does throw that wide of a range and does it well.

I ’ ve only fished with this rod once but already love it. Excellent casting and good action. Definitely recommend this product.

5 CTFish
I have been using Duckett Rods for about 18 months now. I have 22 Mirco Magic Pros and 4 Ghosts and could not be more satisfied with a rod. Super lightweight, strong, sensitive, and has great aesthetic appeal. I 've trusted these rods over the past 18 months to win thousands of dollars on the Bassmaster Opens trail. For whatever technique you 're fishing, Duckett makes a rod for you!

5 jjohnson
I own a lot of high end rods, and these Duckett rods are great. I am not sure what the other guy did to break one, but I have hooked some HUGE fish and had zero problems. Micro guides give you an extreme sensitivity and longest casting distance of any rod I own. My favorite set up is this rod in Medium Heavy with Abu Revo Rocket reel.

4 Tom From VA
I read some reviews on Duckett's line of casting& spinning rods and decided to give the Micro Magic casting rod a try, primarily because of the great sale price at Dick's. In a word, it's OK. Alot of complaints about the eyes not holding up but I have n't had any issues yet. It's rated a little soft and found the medium closer to a med light, so I returned it and got a med heavy 7'... much better. Have n't used it that long, but so far so good. Worth the sale price for sure.

I have really gotten into finesse fishing and wanted a good BFS casting rod. Got this and the quality is great.

Paired it with a matching reel. Would buy again.

Great rod for 99 bucks, I purchased the 7ft medium action which has great sensitivity with 36 ton graphite, metal locking nut and the trigger is very comfortable to fish with. I personally like the carbon fiber reel butt a lot, which is very nice looking and adds to the lightness of the rod. Nice lightweight rod especially paired up with my JDM Metanium. Can cast lighter lures easily if paired up with the right reel. I was able to cast smaller swimbaits which I usually use my spinning rod for. Loved it so far hoping it holds up well.

Excellent rod for fluke and blackfish just the right action

4 eaglerider7
I bought this rod back in April for a June annual trip to the Nantucket Shoals. We use heavy lead to fish fluke at 100' or better there. I did not love this stick for fluke. On a whim, I gave it as shot locally on Long Island for jigging stripers with flutter spoons. I will say hands down this is an awesome rod for that use. Plenty of action in the rod. It bends perfect for fighting big stripers. I paired this with a 5. 3 Avet reel( not sold at Dicks) and it performed great. For me it is not a good fluke rod, but really like it for bigger fishing and active jigging.

[ Outstanding rod at a great price. Was looking for a bfs rod, and this was perfect

5 FishinMagician
[ First impressions, the MH rod felt great in hand and balanced with my 100 size baitcasting reel. Time will tell how long it will last but for the money it has pretty sensitive blank and light enough for my intended use which is for wet wading in creeks and rivers. Very satisfied and would buy again in the future!

Frequently Asked Questions For Custom Casting Rods

Custom casting rods are specially designed fishing rods that can be tailored to meet the specific preferences and needs of the angler. Unlike standard rods, which come in fixed specifications, custom rods allow for adjustments in length, action, power, and materials, providing a more personalized fishing experience. This customization can enhance performance and comfort, making it easier to target specific fish species or fishing techniques.

Custom casting rods are typically made from a variety of materials, with graphite and fiberglass being the most common. Graphite rods are known for their sensitivity and lightweight properties, while fiberglass rods offer durability and flexibility. Some custom rods may also incorporate composite materials to combine the benefits of both, allowing anglers to choose based on their fishing style and preferences.

When choosing a custom casting rod, consider factors such as rod length, action, power, and the types of lures or baits you plan to use. Additionally, think about the fishing environment, whether it's freshwater or saltwater, and the species you aim to catch. Personal comfort and grip preferences are also important, as they can significantly impact your overall fishing experience.

Yes, custom casting rods can be designed to accommodate various fishing techniques, such as bass fishing, trout fishing, or even saltwater fishing. By selecting the right specifications, anglers can create a rod that performs optimally for their chosen technique, whether it involves casting, flipping, or pitching. This versatility makes custom rods a popular choice among serious anglers.

The action of a custom casting rod refers to how much and where the rod bends when pressure is applied. Fast action rods bend near the tip, providing quick responsiveness and sensitivity, ideal for techniques that require precise lure control. Conversely, slow action rods bend more throughout the length, offering more flexibility and better casting distance. Understanding the action that best suits your fishing style can greatly enhance your performance on the water.

The price of custom casting rods can vary widely based on factors such as materials, craftsmanship, and brand reputation. Generally, you can expect to pay anywhere from a moderate price for entry-level options to higher prices for premium, high-performance rods. Investing in a custom rod can be worthwhile for serious anglers who prioritize quality and performance tailored to their specific fishing needs.
