Hello fellow panfishers, first I like to say these last few days I get over excited to be part of this friendly community to point of having too much idea for a good read...I promise I’ll slow down after this post..Lol. I also apologize in advance if topic been discussed else where. I just received this rod from overseas that seems to defying conventional rod design concept I didn’t know til now. When I decided I’m gonna be predominantly pursuing small game fish (sunfish <7 inch) out of necessity, im constantly looking to push the fun factor envelope! So rod and reel specs has taken center stage for now!

Said rod listed as UL just like my old trusty Fenwick Eagle which purchased at Dicks sporting 5 yeas ago. I assume it represents American market UL standard but I’m no rod expert..lol. The other 2 is Asian ( don’t think it’s JDM) Teton and Mavllos brand. Not discussing which better or which high end or low end just here to say it’s very “unique” rod!

So according to this chart (last pic from the net) the Fenwick is a heavy rod even within UL designation, but yet it’s a “moderate” rated. The Teton ( which classified as “fast” at time of purchase) has become moderate in bending power. This leave the new rod as somewhere between exfast action/ slow at the same time...sound a little odd? Did the Chinese come up with something that only the bass rod manufacturers been holding secret all these year....a extra fast rod for the lowest of power for light game fishermen the world over? Any thoughts will be interesting to read! And yes field test will be soon. Lastly check out the rod specs!
