Linear S fiberglass allows these rods to have a deep "bend" (Moderate) during stress. This helps with two things; first and foremost, even with light hard baits that have a lot of air resistance, you can get a good "charge" in the blank, which maximizes casting length, in addition, you do not lose as much fish when the blank is allowed to work and the rod is not so fixed.
Most baits with a treble hook are still very easy to hook with, so you do not really need a solid spine to hook the fish. This is really the whole secret with a fiberglass rod. Fish these rods with a reel that has fluorocarbon or braided line as the main line. The fluorocarbon further helps to cause stretch, but above all it sinks quickly so the bait fishes deeper and it is both completely silent and invisible!
LGC610MM is rated Medium Power, 1 / 4-3 / 4oz (7-21gr) with Moderate action. The rod is in one piece.
