I have been steady using this rod for 2 years now, all I can say is it’s the best all around rod. I’ve caught perch, catfish,even turtles (unintentionally) (personal fav) bass all kinds. I matched it with the braided line 30lb 150yards, works a charm. Never have any back lash. Anything that gets tangled is easily undone, I’ve used this in ponds, in lakes. You name it I’ve used it. I’ve bought other rods as (play) rods if you will and I always find myself going right back to my gx2 the cast is without a doubt the best in the market. The rod splits into two if I need to take it somewhere. It’s light weight but not the durability this thing can pull some monsters. Biggest I pulled in was an 8lb didn’t need a net anything after you’ll need a net. The rod is all around one of the best things I am literally buying another as we speak hence why I came back to write a review. Beyond amazing between the cast I get about 50 yards (pushing it with a weighted hook and that’s it) so the cast is smooth nice and goes, the flexibility as you get bit, I mean you can feel every chop. And yes you can pull up the cats, picture above is some of many catches with this rod! Save yourself the time and money and buy this rod you’ll thank me later!!

Got this as my first ultra light rod for when the big fish aren’t biting and man i love it. I’ve already caught tons of panfish on it with no issue. Bunch of crappie, bluegill, perch, and bass with no issue at all. I spooled it up with 6lb test and I have no complaints. Can’t wait to take it out on the kayak again.

If you’ve fished for a while and starting to get good then this is the pole. No need to go out and buy a fancy rod, I got the 6’6 and sure my big bass put on a fight but this is granted I was only using 6 lb line with this rod. I had a more sturdy but cheaper Shakespeare but wanted an up grade and this was definitely the one that brought in all the fish
