Why is there an ad for this rod here on TFF, but it's not in any Academy stores, and isn't even listed on the All Star webpage??

Got a chance to check out these micro rods the other day. I wasn't very impressed. They're priced at $129. Didn't feel as good as a Carrot Stick Wild, and I don't really care for those. I definitely wouldn't pay $129 for this rod.

They should be in the stores because they put them in their weekly ad which started today. Ad price is $129.

My assumptions were almost spot on with these. Other than an a few inch changes, it's almost the same exact blank as the ASR series. Took away cork, added EVA foam and microguides for reduced weight.
You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.
