13 fishing Omen Panfish and trout rod full review
Updated review.
I got the 5'6" ultralight version. $130 100% 36Ton modulus graphite.
It's a bit stiffer than most ultralights...so I'm gonna call it ultralight and a half.
In my first review, I said I wasn't sure if it was worth the money due to lack of perceived sensitivity. I am amending that statement. It is absolutely worth the money.
I had originally handicapped it by pairing it with a $16 Zebco Stinger and using mono instead of braid like I normally do.
This time, I paired it with a Pfluger President XT in 20 size and 6lb Suffix ProMix braid. Huuuuuge difference.
I could feel every pebble on the bottom. This is my new favorite ultralight rod by a long shot. The Pflueger Trion IM6 is really good....the Omen is on a different level as far as sensitivity goes.
Coming from bass fishing, I'm a stickler for rod sensitivity....and the Omen is tops of all the panfish rods I have hands down. It even beats my st croix panfish rod by a large margin.
If it's in your budget, and I don't say this often or lightly ..go get one.
