Jackall Revoltage

[Hogsticker2]

One thing I have noticed is that these rods a smidge heavier in weight than others of same length and power ratings that incorporate the T1100G and M40X.

The SIC guide train could play a role in that.

Any idea who makes blanks for Jackall?

That was my first thought. Seems it would undercut Shimano's own offerings, given the price point and materials. Of course, I don't know how much M40X and T1100G actually goes into these rods.

The 7'3"H Revoltage weighs the same as the 7'2" Ultima @ 120 grams. Pretty impressive. It is hard to understand the differences in the blanks of the Ultima/glorious/revoltage when they all claim 1100g/m40.

The new Revoltage use least amount 1100/M40 and it is made in China. The rods about 2xxxx yens cheaper than Glorious. I expect it is better than Expride with better blank.

Sounds about right

Word. I think they will do well competing with other $200ish sticks.

I found one that I'd like to add to my next rod order from Haven....the 7'8"ML+ (1/8-5/8oz) 107.8g's.

For sure, this rod has me very intrigued.

Received my 73H the other day as I was looking for a frog rod/pitching stick, and my initial thoughts are that Jackall has created a winner, especially for the price. Feels very nice and light in hand, balances well (about an inch in front of the lock nut with a Met 20), and sensitivity is better than expected from what I can tell in my garage fishing (pitching and dragging a casting weight). Build quality is spot on, with nice details throughout. Guides towards the tip are almost micro but not quite. I like that the reel seat seems to be painted a satin/matte black and not rubber coated since those get gummy. The one thing I don't like is the lock nut, it has a raised, knurled/textured ring with a pretty sharp edge that can be annoying depending on how you grip your rod/reel and place your fingers, but the nice thing is since it splits at the handle, you can swap it out which is what I plan to do. I can report back once I get it on the water and can give a better assessment but I am very impressed so far.

Perfecto, thanks for putting in the time and effort.

Is JDM Tackle Heaven the only vendor that would carry the current Revoltage?

Tackle Haven seems to be the only place to get many of the JDM rods. With $100 shipping, I just wait until I can buy a minimum of two models. I've thought about emailing JLS to see if he is getting them in.
