To further enhance performance and complement the modern look, an ergonomic Custom VSS style reel seat fits perfectly into the blank of the Spinning rods, while the Casting rods use a Custom ECS design with a carbon locking collar. There are 8 spinning models to choose from, all with extra fast actions for precise casting performance of light and medium lures.
