Product Details
EVX B-Series Musky Split Cork 8'6" Extra-Heavy Casting Rod (EVx-C-861XH-Tb) by Okuma®. Suitable for any of freshwater fishing. Handle style is split cork rear grip and trigger reel seat. At Okuma Fishing Tackle, the expectation is that every product, at every price, be the absolute best it can be. With this in mind, redeveloped EVx Musky rods take an award-winning rod line and make it even better. Specific EVx Musky rod actions have not changed. The blanks continue to be constructed from powerful and responsive 24-Ton carbon. One primary difference, however, is that new models are now equipped with Okuma UFR, Unidirectional Fiber Reinforcement, technology. UFR adds a layer of unidirectional fiber to the tip section of the rod. This seamless integration delivers a 3X increase in strength and lifting power in the tip. Functionally, UFR fortifies the tip against breakage when casting heavy lures or putting hard hooksets on big pike and musky right near the boat. EVx B-Series Musky rods also include upgraded rod guides. The guide system now features Sea Guide double-foot, deep-press stainless steel guide frames. The tip guide features Sea Guide's RS ring for unmatched hardness and durability. The guide system anticipates braided lines and provides rock-solid foundation and a long service life.
