When it takes, on the average, 10,000 casts to catch one of these toothy
critters, you’d better have your game on and that includes the right
equipment. Muskie are so elusive anglers are happy to have a couple of
“follows” during a day on the water. The lures are big, the line is
heavy and the rods have to be powerful to handle them, not to mention
the fish. These are ambush-oriented creatures that come out of nowhere
to chase down the right bait when presented properly. They are
explosive, tough fighters and you have to be aggressive, not to mention
patient. If everything works perfectly… success! One false move and
you go home wondering, “what if”. Muskies aren’t all giants, but even a
small one is a challenge and the reward validates the risk. It’s a
world of big baits and they are trending even bigger. Giant swimbaits,
huge plugs, oversized in-line, bucktail spinners and huge spinnerbaits
require long, powerful rods to cast and control these babies. It’s not a
game for the faint of heart! We’ve spent a lot of time studying the
fish, the lakes, the rivers and the anglers who call the Muskellunge
their fish of choice. We’ve created a series of casting rods just for
you die-hards that will do everything you ask and more. They aren’t your
everyday Muskie rod, but then Muskies aren’t your everyday fish. These
new rods are long, powerful, high performance fishing instruments
designed specifically to fish the new hi-tech baits. You’ll cast
farther, find them surprisingly light for all that power and be
confident that when the “moment” happens you’ll be in total control.
Carpe diem!
