Our popping rods were originally designed for casting LIVE BAIT (mainly shrimp), under a popping cork out on the flats, but freshwater anglers have found umpteen other uses for them as well. These rods have a relatively soft tip, which allows your bait to land softly and QUIETLY, even on long casts, another plus when the water's skinny and the fish spook easily. At the same time, they're powerful rods, capable of handling surprisingly large fish. They come in a variety of lengths for different applications. The top four guides and tip-top feature oversized rings to handle large knots for shock tippets. GREAT rods for great fish.
Most flats anglers would refer to this as an ultra-light popping rod. It has an extremely fast tip for fishing light line and small jigs or live bait, but the butt section has plenty of power to handle bigger fish. A good choice for sight-fishing redfish, bonefish and other flats species.
