Love it ^^^^^ Bought this rod for football jigs. I does a good job for that. Use it for almost anything. Most versatile rod I've ever owned.

But, for a fraction of the cost, I usually use my academy H2O Ethos Nano 7'3" Heavy. It is almost as sensitive, has the same guides and same reel seat. It's slightly reduced sensitivity is probably due to the painted blank. Both feel identical when you are using them. Also....you can buy four of the Ethos rods for the price of the Cara ST. Eat. Sleep. Fish.
