Quantum Smoke Casting Rod Review
To say I’m picky about my fishing rods would be an understatement. Although I won the first few tournaments of my life years ago on a two-piece spinning rod, that same fishing rod caused me a lot of heartache and missed opportunities. I finally got fed up with it and started spending a lot of time researching and testing various rods so I could find the most favorable options that match my style of fishing.
After years of experimentation, I’m convinced that if you want to maximize your success on the water, you need to have a fishing rod that’s up for the task. That doesn’t mean it needs to be expensive—just well designed.
For the past few weeks, I’ve been doing a lot of fishing with the new Quantum Smoke Casting Rod. I first laid eyes on this rod during ICAST this past year and I’m not going to lie, I was pretty giddy about getting my hands on it. I’ve been using the 7-foot, 4-inch heavy-action model and have really enjoyed it for pitching both Texas rigs and jigs alike.
