We will have to see how it holds up over the long term, but the three trips out with it so far have moved this rod to the top shelf in my rod locker. The castability with a 1/32 or 1/16 jig and plastic is outstanding!! The tip loads up great and it doesn't take much to get into the backbone. It also was able to handle a 23" and 27" pre-spawn walleye. I will be adding a med/light KADE rod to my collection in the near future!
