As Engineers, we actually design our custom sturgeon rod blanks, not just use whatever is commercially available. This takes time and lots of R&D but it gives us a superior product that we are honored to stand behind and our new "the Church" rod is no different. We moved the taper back towards the reel seat but still provides plenty of backbone to drive the hooks home while maintaining plenty of action in the top half of the rod to absorb those 70" headshakes. This overbuilt, newly designed and yet still cost effective performance engineering rod features:
- 42" XH Custom Blended Blank
- Solid Fiberglass Hi-Viz Tip
- Oversize Double-Footed Super Smooth Aluminum Insert Guides
- Perfect Moderately Fast Action
- Dual Locking Reel Seat
- Intercostal Extended Rod Foregrip and Rear Butt
- Blend of EVA Foam, Cork, Metal Inlay Rod Handle
Simply put, this is our best rod yet!
