Product Details and Uses
The Wrath II Labrax Combos feature a balanced construction that prioritizes sensitivity and responsiveness:
- Sensitive Graphite Blank: The rod is constructed from a lightweight and strong 2-piece graphite composite blank. It features a fast action that ensures the sensitive tip gives perfect life and movement to your lure, while the powerful mid-section and butt reserve ample strength for a solid hookset and fight.
