Megabass told me from the beginning that the target availability date for these is late April of this year. The Tackle Trap will begin accepting pre-orders as soon as we have the green light. Here are a couple more photos that may help out! I'll release full specs for all the models soon unless someone does it first!

Gary,

Is that Warhammer a meatstick? Looking for a punch rod with some bend to it.

Thanks

The Warhammer was designed with punching in mind. It has a ton of backbone and it is well thought out in terms of having the right flex for that application. My time with the rod didn't coincide with any punching activities, but I did throw some swim baits with the rod and pitched and casted a 1 oz jig with a large trailer. I see guys figuring out a lot of things they can do with the Warhammer when they're not punching. I will certainly do some punching with one this season as soon as that bite gets going!

Just the name "Warhammer" makes me want to buy the rod. :lol:

Not pictured are the F7-76C Valdiva or the F10-711C Onager... full specs to come soon!

This OneTen Special is simply awesome. I'm very excited for more time with this one, even if the prime jerk bait bite has passed for the spring. It's so crisp that after a snap of the rod with a 110, it gets back to "stop" very quickly for enhanced bite detection on a slack line. As much as I've enjoyed other OneTen models, this one feels right for me and I'll be tossing a lot of top water baits on it this spring/summer. The handle is short like OneTen sticks of the past, but the length makes it much more appealing for so many other applications.

Ham - the FMJ is a FINE jig rod. I caught some fish pitching a 1/2 oz jig on a bluff wall in deep water and current and the sensitivity and power are there.

Warhammer, what a name, and a fitting one at that for that whoopin' stick :lol:

Javelin vs Daemos, seems similar specs wise. How were they different in regards to performance?
