Review: Great rods - Have bought the 8,9,10 foot mediums. They are very light. Eyelets are very robust and strong. The reel seats and threads are still plastic with a paper thin chrome wrap. They cast fantastic with different reels. They are on the stiffer side but when a 30 inch, marauding bluefish slams you, you'll be happy its stiffer. Then 10 foot medium launches 4 ounces really well. Im always 100 to 120 yards with that weight and im certainly no great caster. The 8 and 9 foot rods do nicely when fishing artificials. Stiff enough to jig with and with enough give to keep jerkbaits and plugs feeling and looking real in the water. If you want the super sensitivity of an ultralight, get special line and learn how to use your fingers. I've had a mixed bag of deliveries with desertcart fishing rods. The ones that are shipped with ups,fed ex, desertcart always come in just a plastic bag regardless of rod brand. The ones that have shipped with USPS always come in a box. When buying desertcart rods now, I always check the shipping and if it says shipped via usps(shipping couriers aren't always visible) I buy from that seller.
Review: Happy with this purchase - Nice rod. Looks great, casts great, the action is great. I paired this with a Penn 4000. Don’t waste money on those super fancy rods This is well made in USA.

A: It says medium heavy in the description

**Q: Braid line rating?**
A: The line rating for the 8 foot is 12 to 20 pounds, 10 foot is 15 to 30 pounds, the 12 foot is 20 to 40 pounds.  With braided line, because of the smaller diameter, I can throw much heavier line.

A: Depends on what type of fish you are going for if you are going for big game fish like striped bass and Bluefish I recommend the Penn fierce 6000 and better
