My Ark Catalyzer rods have proven to be worth the investment. The rods are light yet very effective and I’m quite impressed with the sensitivity. I’d have gladly given a 5 star review but I’m a bit put off by the very small eyelets. I use braid-to-fluorocarbon line on a few applications. However, even with the small diameter FG knot the eyelets noticeably restricted the smooth passing of the line. My simple adjustment was to use these rods with straight fluorocarbon applications. No worries.
Suggestion… slightly increase the inside diameter of the eyelets toward the tips of the Catalyzer Series.
I love the rods lite but plenty backbone
Great rods an defiantly can't beat the price
