![]() I love my trevala's and use them for everything. The 6-6 Heavy is my go-to for seabass and blackfish. Funny part is I don't know one person that uses them for their intended purpose of jigging, lol.

I was trying to be as polite as possible, but since Mike has the balls to say it........ I agree with him!!! ![]() They are just not the same as some of the stuff you will find from a builder. They are nice rods, but you can find better, if your looking for heavier ratings. |

![]() I agree, but easier to find a used Trevala for 100 bucks and easier on the wallet then a 145+ custom... just sayin
btw - I'm not saying you guys don't do amazing work, cause I know you do, I've seen them in person. I just can't bring myself to spend that kinda money... Last edited by MrAC1980; 05-28-2013 at 02:08 PM.. |

![]() Mike1010....Just came back from a trip where I landed a Blue Marlin using a rod similar to the Trevala....It was a" Star Jigging Rod" and rated the same line class.....Took a little while ,but I won ....These rods have a lot of muscle and do the job...and the best part is that they are light....You can pair it up with a wide variety of reels to target just about any species.....Pete

![]() Thanks for all the replies, but let me put the basic question another way: Can this thing really lift 20 lbs off the floor? Maybe I should take bets. Anybody?
