These are well built. My friend gave me one of these and I have have caught numerous snakehead on mine. I'm sure this color will be killer.

I like cranking with braid in grassy areas

What I do when I want to fish plastics is rotate the jika rig, tokyo rig, free rig, carolina rig, texas rig, etc, switching baits on each one type of rig. It'll keep you busy.

Agreed, put one on recently and cleaned up! Caught 5 different species of fish on 2 sizes.

I like the taper and the tip for casting, it has enough bend in it without being too noodley for me. The length is not too short... where I don't feel I can make a long cast from the bank. It's 7ft, I know most like 6'9" squarebill rods, but I'm accurate enough with it when casting to hit my targeted areas.

Plenty of people here in the US will be able to service them unless it's one of those crazy one off JDM only models.

Nice setup choices, that frogging setup with the 755 & Catalina is sweet. I should have bought more of the Catalinas.

Megabass Flatside Special

I like 50 which is about the same diameter of 12lb mono

I have a normal LH Tackle Warehouse cover on mine

Why did you have to post that? Another rod incoming ?

Powell Endurance 735, 775 or 795

Big Game or CXX copoly for me

It's a nice rod, clean looking, crisp, sensitive and the reel seat is comfortable. Tackle Tour has done a few write ups as well as w1r3d2fish..... as you mentioned. Abu also has great customer service. I asked them about buying a guide for an out of warranty rod, they gave me some options and they offered me 45% off on any new model, so the Fantasista was a no brainer. I fixed the other rod locally for about 10 dollars.

I would mount this on a green 13 fishing rod, to finish off the look, while wearing these
