Description
The W10 Finesse-T T&C rods take sensitivity to a new level, and the key point is this – the fast blank stays powerful enough to finish the job. Handcrafted with X5 carbon layer technology and a Torayca® T1100G+M46X+’Nanoalloy® 55Ton’ blank, it shines with soft lures, small cranks, and Texas & Carolina rigs along the bottom for perch and other predators.

Gerry’s Pro Tip
This is the finesse rod built specifically to pair with a baitcaster rather than a fixed spool – if you already fish trigger-grip style, this is the natural choice over the standard Finesse T&C.
