Cabela's MagTouch Rods
Back in the early 1990s,
Cabela's introduced their original MagTouch Rods. Even back
then, they could see the trend in fishing rods was to reduce
weight and get your hand in touch with the blank for even more
sensitivity.
Technology and innovation have come together in a big way with
the reintroduction of their new MagTouch Rods. The foundation
for these rods is a 54-million-modulus omni-directional graphite
blank that delivers all the sensitivity and durability expected
by modern-day anglers. The new MagTouch skeletonized reel seat
is lighter in weight and allows for more contact with the blank
so every little tick and nibble can be felt. It also eliminates
the fore grip, which increases the feeling sent to your hand
during the slightest rod movement.
Covered with soft-touch
material, the reel seat provides a totally unique feel and
all-day comfort for your hand. The multilayer graphite handle is
durable, increases sensitivity and reduces the overall weight of
the rod. That's accomplished through the multiple layers,
starting with the hoop construction of the interior, then the
linear liner, a graphite slit layer and finally, the woven
graphite handle exterior. All work in conjunction to transmit
movement to the hand and reel. Fuji Alconite guides, with their
concept spacing system, complete the package. Alconite is a
bright black polished surface that's thinner with improved heat
conductivity over other materials. They're even harder than
Fuji's traditional Hardloy rings.
Pflueger’s Patriarch
Given Pflueger’s history and
current line of outstanding low profile reels, creating a new
reel that would take the position as top of the line in the low
profile category was a grand undertaking. Pflueger accomplished
just that with a new level of performance never before achieved
in the Pflueger low profile line up. Coming in at just 8.4
ounces and with two models and gear ratios to choose from (6.4:1
& 7.1:1), the Patriarch is a formidable weapon in the high
performance freshwater and inshore markets.
The Patriarch has 10 ball
bearings, a titanium finish, ported spool and handle along with
the Ultimate Break System. The has a carbon-fiber drag system
for steady and faultless drag.
