For as long as I can remember the
Fooler has been one of my most popular rods. There's something
about its balance, length and action that people like. The FXH
takes those qualities and beefs them up to cope with casting larger
lures. I find it ideally suited to working walk-the-dog surface
lures and sub-surface gliders. It's a mean Burt rod too!
The blank is woven carbon and is
slimmer than might be expected. Great performance and good looks
combined.
FXH ROD SPECIFICATIONS
To give the rods a distinctive
look the rings are whipped with purple thread tipped with a metallic
paler purple to complement the smooth-ground, woven, matt finish
carbon blank. A stainless steel hook keeper is fitted as standard.
The standard handle
comprises a black winding check in front of the three inch flared
cork foregrip, slim contoured cork and black rubber Fuji butt
cap.
There are no garish
graphics on these rods, just a few hand lettered words in white
ink. As with all my rods I build to order only allowing for customisation
options to be accommodated
All stated casting weights
are simply a guide to a rod's capabilities.
