Crixus Fishing Rods, Spinning Rod 7ft -Medium - Fast-2pcs

Full disclosure, I haven't fished with these yet because I bought them in the winter and between season closures, weather and other obligations, I haven't been fishing since I got them. I bought two of the spinning rods and have since bought a casting rod. The first thing I can tell you is that when you order a KastKing rod, you can be pretty certain it will arrive in perfect condition. They definitely know how to package a fishing rod for shipping. I've had some mixed results when ordering rods on Amazon from other companies, which has made me reluctant to order a rod on Amazon. Rest assured if you order a KastKing rod, you'll have to break it yourself after you unpack it from the plastic bag and foam pads that secure it inside of the indestructible, heavy cardboard tube that's inside the cardboard box they shipped it in. The rods are super lightweight. I usually prefer a one piece rod for the sensitivity and peace of mind knowing it isn't going to come apart while casting, but these are 2 pieces, which I wanted because I can fit them in my wife's car if we use that instead of my truck for whatever reason. I can't see any flaws or defects in the materials or construction of these rods. The guides and reel seat look great. The handle material is comfortable and should be easy to keep clean. I usually prefer a little more handle than what these have when fishing the bays and rivers, but that's just my personal preference. These should be perfect for the creeks and lakes and areas where I won't be trying to haul big fish out of heavy cover all day. I think they'll be great for casting swim baits along the sod banks for schoolie stripers and similar fish. They're light enough to cast all day and seem strong enough to get the fish to the kayak or the shore or whatever you're fishing from.

I already owned Crixus spinning rod and liked it enough to add a M-f casting rod as well. I like to pair my Kastking zephyr with 6 or 8 lb flouro on a M rod. I'm not all-in on BFS, so no UL rods for me! But, I enjoy fishing a wacky rig or small paddle tail on that combo. Landed five 1-3 lb bass with this rod this morning. Wacky rig and small topwater, for the win. Tight lines!

I was looking for an inexpensive rod to pair with a particular reel I had for traveling when I chose to order this one. Quality seems to be close to par with some of the higher end rods in my collection and the packaging was great! None of the eyes were distorted. Worth the money spent

Love it. Perfect for feeling the thump crappie fishing.

Gifted this to a friend, he absolutely loves it.
