The Best Swimbait Rod
Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
Stateside, low down customs seem pretty bad arse for the price. Guys that know how to sling a big bait certainly like them. They just had a run of 3 models of the no frills white label and those sold out in a couple three days...west side

Megabass XX Leviathan is worth checking out. I never really got into swimbaiting because the equipment felt too cumbersome but to me that rod is pretty sick. Never thought an 8 foot rod could feel that light and balanced

ONAGER!!!!
Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
X2 I can't believe how powerful yet balanced this rod is.
Get your kids hooked on fishing, and they'll never have any money for drugs or alcohol.
Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
Any reviews or thoughts on the Megabass TS Destroyers???
Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
I just received the black jack but haven’t fished it or thrown a reel on it yet. I can tell you the fit and finish is absolutely striking. I will give a report when I get a chance to fish it. I have a tranx 301 coming on Thursday so I can give some info on how it feels and balances then.

Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
The Onager is one of the best balanced big bait sticks I've ever fished. The Destroyer TS rods are sharp looking, especially the Black Jack and Poker. Those are the only ones I've fished much in the series, and both are really nice. The Black Jack is one extremely impressive rod, and its VERY versatile, not just a dedicated big bait stick.

Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
I’ve fish both the mark 48 and onoger. They are both incredible rods but after switching to lowdown customs there is no looking back the white label 79MH is one amazing small swimbait rod and the 8XH is a beast for baits like the deps 250 and baitsmith/hawghunter mags.

Re: The Best Swimbait Rod
i really like my low down customs white label rods for sure great big bait sticks. Those T.S destroyers also!! cristo turned my direction to the black jack a while back and its such a great big bait rod for sure and just a top notch build on that series and megabass used the right reel seat! If you throw 6' freestlye magdrafts a lot take a hard look at the t.s destroyer poker as well. I know its a shorter rod but its awesome for those baits and solid hooksets.
