This rod features a parabolic but quick and powerful action, delivering a very good and funny fishing action. Every detail has been design with great accuracy. The top guide frame does not have any welding on its back. This comes because when you are fishing with the line in your hand, when you feel the catfish attack and you release the line to take the rod and strike, the line itself cannot tangle on the top guide. There is no way it can do that! Then, since you will use the Fireball Extreme with really big catches, the reel seat must be really reliable. That’s why an additional metallic ring has been added to the reel seat, to improve safety and to avoid the reel to move even one millimeter. The EVA shaped handle gives a perfect and firm grip in every season of the year, and on the bottom there is a hard rubber gimbal, for all the people that prefer to use the fighting belt.
