Level NGXC 7'8" Heavy Fast - Casting Rod
Designed by two-time Bassmaster Classic Champion Hank Cherry, Level Rods proudly took the popular NGX Series and added cork handles! Engineered with precision and innovation, each rod in this series boasts a lightweight 30/40 Ton, Toray Carbon Blank - setting a new standard for strength, sensitivity, and performance. The rod is designed with a Carbon X-Wrap along the entirety of the blank for reinforcing its structural integrity and providing unparalleled strength, durability and sensitivity.
The NGXC Rod Series are outfitted with tangle free guides for reducing line contact with the blank, allowing for smoother casts and reel retrieve. One of the standout features on the NGXC is the lightweight injected carbon reel seat with a carbon screw lock cap - allowing you to feel everything!
