The Defiant combo pairs two reliable pieces at a price that won't break the bank. The linecounter will help your accuracy and efficiency when getting your bait to the right depth. It's all graphite construction with multi-point ant-reverse, large line capacity and oversize handle will give you all the power you need for that next big fight. The rod features a strong tubular E-Glass blank through handle construction, gimbal butt and locking-ring reel seat. The handle was designed with high density EVA for a long-lasting comfortable grip. The Rapala MGS™(Maximum Guide System) provides large stainless framed, aluminium oxide eyes so your gear doesn't get caught up on the retrieve. RCT3 (Rapala® Custom Taper) actions will give you the final advantage when boating that monster fish.
