Verdict

Versatility takes on a whole new meaning

Ask ten anglers what the right handle length is and you'll get ten different answers. Fish a multitude of lures or lightweight reels on a rod and you'll have balance nightmares. Fish with a new Verdict™ rod and solve all of those problems and more.

The Extending Handle System™ allows you to set your handle to a desired length for any technique. Shorten the handle for topwater and finesse techniques. Extend the handle for power casting and extra distance, or set it anywhere in between for any technique.

The 36 Ton rating indicates the grade of graphite in the rod, reducing the overall rod weight and improving sensitivity. The higher the tonnage, the stiffer the fibers inside the rod. Stiffer fibers more efficiently transmit vibrations to your hand, improving sensitivity so you can feel more strikes.
