| Anyone try these rods out yet? After a year of abuse, my Reaction strike musky rod snapped on me after battling a monster of a life time..... cheap rod..... otherwise I have been searching for a new rod, and the Heavy or Extra heavy Abu Garcia Volatile rod would look awesome with a Revo Toro Winch, just not sure if the rod can handle casting 8oz + bulldawgs..... any advice or info would be great! |

| Im just not sure if the heavy or extra heavy volatile rod can handle the abuse of musky fishing. Even though all the details sound legit and sweet, I've never seen a musky rod built by abu garcia. Hoping someone with experience using it can provide some insight on it. |

Who has these musky rods in their shops in Wisconsin?
Thanks,
