There’s no denying that our Avid Pearl rods border on the flamboyant, but beneath that glitzy fuchsia-metallic exterior is some hardcore, fish-demoralizing technology. Beginning with a high modulus SCIII graphite blank that incorporates our exclusive IPC® technology, these beauties are highly specialized, technique-specific rods. And the goodies don’t just end there. Each rod is appointed with Alps® zirconium guides, Fuji® reel seats, split-grip cork handles and slim-profile ferrules making them anything but “chick” rods.
