Bass Pro Shops Pro Finesse Casting Rods

For that special touch

Designed to compliment the new Prolite Finesse baitcast reels, these lightweight sticks benefit from new materials and construction. New XPS “Full Contact” reel seat puts your fingers right on the bite. Actions geared toward clear water finesse techniques.

 

A great handling rod, fits well and fine for all anglers who love fishing.  And the State of Michigan just legalized drop shot fishing for 2006 so this is the rod to use.

 

Six models to choose from.
