The Favorite Fishing Phat Glass Cranking Rod combines glass prepreg construction with Multi-Layer Structure (MLS) and FX Grid technology. Its forgiving glass feel and moderate-fast action make this a distinct option when putting together a casting setup for crankbaits.
Choose from three models between 7 feet and 7 feet 6 inches. The 7-foot medium-heavy and 7'6" heavy models feature full cork handles, while the 7'4" medium-heavy model uses a split cork handle.

Setting Up for Cranking
Pair the rod with a compatible casting reel and choose line and crankbait weights within your selected model's ratings. Start with a steady retrieve, then vary the pace and add pauses to suit your lure and conditions. Keep a controlled bend in the rod while fighting a fish rather than making abrupt pulls.
Check your guides, line, and knots before fishing and after contact with cover. Protect the blank and guides during transport and storage.
