Zenaq Spirado Blackart Rods

You already know how I feel about the Zenaqs….outstanding rods, outstanding quality. 

Outstanding write up on these. I feel the same about the B5-74…but it does extremely well in specific areas, some of which you mentioned.

Glad you found your brand, brother. 🫡🤙🏼

@dragon1 that 19 Morethan should be a sweet pairing with that stick…enjoy, brother.

I swapped in a set of 8.5:1 duralumin gears and shaved off another .49 oz.  I got a bit of time on the water with this rod today with 15lb CXX and I'll say that at the end of a bomb cast with a total weight ~ 1 oz spinnerbait, I could easily feel the blades spin and thump.  I could even feel when the front willow wasn't spinning...pretty damn sensitive rod overall and the taper is very reminiscent of the Efreet B76XH-RF I had last year, granted the power is a Heavy +.  I would rate the taper as a Mod-fast+, and enough tip and backbone for just about any tech for 1/2-2 oz, even frogs if you just use straight braid.

Overall this rod feels stout and rugged and just put together for battle.  Can't wait to get into some big single hook moving bait action with this rod.
