Megabass Hyuga

I picked this up through Jpangler. It's the 6'6" ML regular action rod. Sorry the picture isn't better.

Looks nice, but can you downsize the photo a little?

Thanks. I tried resizing and added another. You'll have to let me know if it's better. I'm on my phone.

The build quality is really nice. It's purple to the first guide. After that the blank is unsanded. I haven't been able to fish it. I'm in the process of moving. I took it out of the tube, looked at it, and took a few pictures. I packed it back up, so it'll be a couple months before I use it.

It's marked as a limited model. I thought maybe, because it was cheaper than the XX rods they'd regularly produce them as well. It didn't come with a rod sock. It came with a couple nice velcro straps to bundle it together with other rods. It's marketed as designed for shore fishing.

On a side note. I have to say UPS was great shipping this rod. It's the first rod I've ordered from overseas. I had seen and heard horror stories of broken rods. I ordered the rod on a Tuesday afternoon. I got notification it shipped while I was sleeping Wednesday night. It was delivered Friday before noon to my house in Kansas.

Sorry I can't give some insight into actual performance right now. I wish I had more time to fish now, so I could.

I can't remember for sure. The description on the Megabass website says small size guides. I might unpack it out and look sometime. I'm out of town right now though.
