Now the hard part will be finding one, the guy at jdm tackle heaven says he has no idea when he will get more stock.
Shimreels has it in stock, and if you make an account with them they are running a 10%off coupon. I've bought multiple items from them without issue. Shipping takes a little longer than JDM Tackle Heaven, but if its the rod you want then its worth the wait

Thanks man! I just placed my order.
Awesome, post pictures once it arrives!
It’s here, very impressed with it.


Beautiful stick but I can’t help but to feel bad that you have to see that face when you do squats. 😂

🤣 GO DAWGS!

I got to take the stick out this morning and it’s every bit as sensitive as the 893 maybe more so. It fishes a bit lighter than what I’m used to in a jig rod, I got a little nervous on the first hook set because I set it hard but it handled it great, just doesn’t have as stiff backbone as the 893. I realized I don’t mind the shorter rod either I’m not bombing out jigs anyway. The build quality, balance and sensitivity make it an amazing rod.

Only on par with the 893 in sensitivity? For that price, u need to be able to feel the fish's heart beating

Yeah it may be tad better but it’s hard to tell once you get to rods that sensitive. The build quality is definitely the best I’ve seen in any rod.
