Fishing Applications and Fishing Rod Suggestion Guide
Your targets will be Barra, Mulloway and Murray Cod. Given the braid capacity and maximum drag, the IKE is destined for a larger class of fish. Considering the fish you will be chasing, at 215 grams, the IKE is pretty darn light. Constructed on the X2-Cräftic alloy frame with a C6 carbon palm sideplate and aluminum handle sideplate, the D2 Gear Design and Duragear brass gear are well protected, operating at peak even under the most extreme loads.
The 6.6:1 ratio is perfect for casting lures at Mulloway, Barra and Murray Cod. The speed is well suited to a steady deliberate approach to retrieves.
