Introduction: From their original Helium series to their custom, made to order Z-Bones, to the recently reimaged Magnesium 2 and countless series in between, Kistler Custom Rods has never shied away from the opportunity to make some noise in the bass fishing market. Not all of their product plans have necessarily worked out, but once they partnered up with North Fork Composites for a stable, reliable, high quality provider for their blanks and brought the majority of their rod builds back in house, everything has stabilized and that's a reflection of the high quality product now leaving their factory. Today we take a look at their new flagship line, the ZBone LEXF.
Per the review, this model is described as a LEXF3MH with a lure rating of 1/4 - 3/4 oz. However, the Kistler website has some slightly different info. The website describes this rod as a LEXF4MH with a lure rating of 3/8 - 7/8 oz. Does anyone know if these rods are the same?
They probably updated the rod's specification. The model we reviewed was acquired a couple years ago. Sometimes it takes time for us to work our way through a piece of tackle.
