The 7' 8-17# graphite spinning rod has always been one of our very best selling and most popular spinning rods we offer. This is a rod that every fisherman can use without a doubt. It is the perfect rod for light 10-12# line. It is ideal for Snook, Trout, Redfish, Bonefish and even Fluke fishing. Many often use this same rod for Bass fishing too. I like to pair this rod up with a smaller Shimano 2500 reel with 10-12# test line but some will fish a 4000 sized reel which also works great. Use this set up for casting small 1/4 ounce jigs all day inshore or drifting a shrimp back into the lights for Snook, Ladyfish, Jacks and more.
