Although the rod is a real buggy whip, the handle is somewhat heavy. Rod, reel, line and a 1/4 ounce bait comes up to about 13 ounces. Be safe, Rayzor 2001 Triton Tx-21/225 Mercury EFI

On these inshore saltwater rods, the big names COMPETE for the lightest rod.. It's a pretty deal with a trout/redfish rod, not a "waste of time." When people are handing you $400 a rod then y'all can talk about who needs to find something else to do Sarge made one that was 2.1oz... I think he's got everyone beat right now.
