Re: 13 fishing defy silver

Thank you for the write up! I had the first and second gen RR and while it was an excellent stick, ul was never my primary way to fish due to the feisty exotics we run into down here.

Re: 13 fishing defy silver

Ooh OK... I have some questions regarding the presso :lol:

Do you have the 2 or 4 piece?
How are the connections?
True to their ratings and action?
As sensitive as a $60 rod can be?
Would you buy again?

Re: 13 fishing defy silver

Ehhh. I have an Omen black that broke at the same spot. Even though the warranty process was smooth, I never warmed up to it since.

Re: 13 fishing defy silver

It seems like these have been out for a while now :-k Too bad there really isn't much out there in terms of feedback for this line up of defy. The silver has different polished SS guides instead of the zirconia on the black series otherwise they look to be similar builds http://www.13fishing.com/def...

Phenix Feather 7'1 L Casting

Anyone have experience with this particular rod?

Didn't care for the recon models real seat/grip. Is this any better?

Fish lighter than rated?

Decided on the fuego CT with a diy spool.

Leaning toward the Phenix feather 7'1 L as a usdm option
