Product Overview
Every Virtus rod is built in the USA, in the Ozarks, and the Red Diamond is the top of that line. What makes it worth the shelf space is how specific each model is: there is a rod here for froggin', one for punching, one for glide baits, one for rattle traps, and so on through twenty-five models. Phenix has been making rods for over thirty years, and this is where that shows.
What you get
- Made in the USA in the Ozark Mountains
- Twenty-five technique-specific models, each tuned to one job
- Black Fuji Alconite guides
- Graphite reel seat with carbon fiber hoods
