 What's going on fishing freaks welcome to today's video? I really want to get into something that you guys have asked for and I haven't done a whole lot of Explaining the favorite team was here this week. We were doing a bunch of product shooting And so I thought this would be a great time to go over my signature series rod in the big sexy series line of favorite fishing rods first off Just let me say that this is Really the reason I joined with favorite fishing if you guys didn't watch that video It was probably over a year ago now and so much has happened since then Those guys have been with me through thick and thin through everything Joined them from a family standpoint one of the main reasons I also joined with them is to be very interactive in the company join the company itself I'm used to fishing a lot of Really nice rods. I fish many of them over the course of Many years fishing as a guide and fishing pro tournaments and things like that and just generally fishing a lot You know making these videos. So this is a culmination of that. So without further ado, let's crack this puppy open I want to show you guys everything that I haven't shown you that that makes this rod unique and really special to me Obviously, let me start out with the tube itself You know, this is something unique that you really don't see with other fishing rods and favorite fishing We're doing things a little differently stuff like this makes it unique. You know, this is its own shipping tube. It comes in a very Secure tube you could actually use this later if you want in a travel situation You see on there the LFG make every cast count. This is it You'll also see it comes in it has its own rod sleeve the rods very protected. It's got foam on the ends Let's unsheathe this bad boy and get into it. So I'll tell you guys on Basically the generalities of the whole big sexy line That this thing is platformed on And through all the big sexy rods You're gonna see this wrapping right here on the base of the rod basically up to like the second guide and that is a hardcore Cartman tape. It's a it's like a Kevlar wrapping that goes around in a cross pattern What that does it creates a really strong blank, but it reduces the weight of the rod You're not having to put as much material as you traditionally would to make that rod stiffer So you end up having a really good backbone that stops right there at the second guide And then you go into more of a traditional wrapping and that's where the more action of your rod is at my opinion on the big sexy line is the aesthetics of them are just gorgeous Powerful colors that red black silver Just real powerful colors. That's you know my logo on my channel the LFG fish and all that the Sun hits it You got a cool like chameleon paint. It'll go from like a green to a Oranges red another thing everyone notices about the big sexy line is the fatter Handle in the back. You know, it's like man. What's going on that? I never seen anything like that Well that right there is basically an extension of the rod blank itself instead of having cork and and split grip You've got this instead and then it's foam on the end. So it's it's a good balance. This rod is very balanced That's one of the key things I always look for in a very good rod. I'm not the biggest fan of split grips Especially if I'm fishing something upright really the only time I prefer split grips is as if I'm fishing something down like Specifically like for jerk baits or a top water just very specifically everything else I generally like a full cork all the way down This isn't full cork all the way down reduces the weight a little bit, but it still remains balanced Quite honestly, I love the feel of it and basically the last thing you're gonna see on all the big sexy rods is The premium guide train, you know, this is the Fuji K frames, it's a tangle free guide great for grade and for apartment just reduces those tangles It's a super hard alkenite insert great for sensitivity. I've never had one chip crack on me, which is Really good because I fished these rods really hard the LFG make every cast counts signature series is a rod that I wanted to build that is it's It's very general all-purpose this one. I feel is right for a broad Number of things not every rod can do everything. That's just impossible You know, it's like specific tools But I wanted to design something that's kind of a multi-tool that a lot of you guys can enjoy And still get that that sensitivity that light feel This is a length in an action I felt that was missing out of the series and that's that's why I wanted to design it just over the course of years using Different rods around this length and actions. This is what we came up with and it's a 7-2 Medium heavy. It's got a good backbone though. What is this rod going to be good for it's going to be good for spinner baits chatter baits? Texas rakes, you know up to about half ounce the rod says three quarters on it But I found just using it, you know up to half ounces is really preferable God dang it sounds getting bright shift over here for a second the 7-2 is a fantastic length in my opinion for just all around Especially around my height. I'm about six feet tall. I can still pitch with it So I can do little roll pitches underhand little little pitches and flips around docks things like that If I'm dedicated to docks and close-up rush fishing I'm gonna go down to a seven foot because on a shorter rod you can get better accuracy But with extra length you're gonna get more distance more leverage on the fish So if you're turning around to go cast You're just gonna have a better overall Rod on your hands So I can be pitching the docks with this thing and then I can turn around and I can make a long cast if you're fishing on on the bank You always want a little extra length so you can get a longer cast hit those targets a little bit better Now some of the aesthetics of the rod that make it also pretty sweet Check it out guys make every cast count right in the handle right there Just a just a reminder it's been something really inspirational for me that I've kept over the years And I know a lot of you guys love it. So put that in there LFG is right there on the cork handle. You got the LFG Fish down here The fishing freak fish down here in the the foam the logo is right there Matches perfectly with the big sexy color scheme and it's beautiful. So the real seat This added a little extra a coin to the rod because it is machine aluminum It's super ergonomic. It's light. Your reel is not going anywhere with this thing. It's a super tight Real seat so that that custom aluminum real seat Costs a little bit more, but I I just love it. It's red too. It's that power color And I'll also say that not only am I super proud of the signature series rod. I mean that's been a That's been a dream come true just being a kid that wanted to make it in the fishing industry and I've kind of clawed my way doing just about everything from being a fishing guide to Working on TV shows being a sales rep I've done just about everything And then to work with a company like favorite and have the signature series rock amounts really something special I'm super proud of that guys But not only that just being a part of favorite is something I'm really proud of too, you know Everybody there has got this this mission on their mind. Everyone is just super Focused and we're passionate about fishing like everyone there is just super passionate about fishing And really driving favorite fishing Upward and onward so that's that's been really awesome to watch favorite grow over the past year And I can't wait to watch them grow even more. It's really something cool so that is going to wrap up the the review I guess of my own signature series rod It's so cool, but if you guys have questions leave them down below if you Just like the rod in general make sure to hit the thumbs up you want to get your hands on one of these bad boys You know what to do Link is down in the description where you can go to favorite site where you get free shipping on the rod It comes in the tube and all that or you can go to a retail store Like Bella's that has these in stock and go in there and shake them Feel them for yourself and then make a decision on it, but I'm telling you It's a right tool for a bunch of stuff This is one of those rods where I've got like three or four of them on the deck And then I've got my more specific rods for you know more specific things that I'm doing With longer links and in different actions and things like that, but this one covers a broad base Thank you very much fishing freaks for tuning into this video and just Especially you long-term fishing freaks have been a part of this channel for a long time This is really cool.
