This Chase'N Cats Bumping Rod comes in weighing just under 10oz.  The graphite reel seat has an exposed blank underneath in front of the trigger for feel and added sensitivity with double locking nuts.  This is a Heavy Power Blank.  The blank is made of a carbon blend to our specs.  The guides are SS guides for durability, 10 guides plus the tip.(same as on current Chase'N Cats Rod models).  The foregrip & rear split handle has just the right amount of EVA foam for a comfortable grip.  The durable hook keeper is on top inline with the guides.
