Any angler who likes fishing for catfish from a boat will love this rod. The sensitive action of the tip section does all the work when it comes to bait presentation and bite recognition. Regardless of whether you prefer to drift to where the action is or anchor on a hot spot, with the TOP Cat Boat the right tool is always in your hands. To bring the fish under control as fast as possible after the strike, the rod has an extremely strong backbone with progressive strength distribution, reinforced by a unique carbon mesh fabric. No specimen fish is going to get away from this rod in a hurry! And thanks to the special boat guides, both multiplier and fixed spool reels can be used. Putting it simply, this is how to handle catfish!
