X4 hedgehog

Post by KP Duty » Tue Jun 09, 2015 8:26 am

Just wondering what opinions were of this little casting rod and if it's really capable to 1/2oz. I like short rods for top waters and jet baits and I'm really wanting a reason to buy it. It's a sharp rod that I'm finding deals on.

I held this rod at the store and it has a very strange action. Its has a stinger tip. Imagine 3/4 or more of the blank has a ton of backbone, then the last 8-10 inches to the tip is like a whip.

The rod is made for flippin & pitchin small jigs/plastics. Would not be a good topwater rod. Im glad i got to handle this one first cause i was also interested in this rod, lol.
