Alpha Elite Spec - Pro 7'10" Heavy Fast
Ln: 15-25lb Lr: 3/8-1.5oz
The Mission: Based on multiple requests from our customers and prostaff anglers, we created a 7'10", High Modulus, heavy action rod for offshore and shallow cover fishing. This new Elite Spec fits between the Mag-Hitter punching rod, and our 7'6" Hitter flipping rod. Overall it's lighter in weight, with a fully articulated parabolic power curve... meant for driving big hooks at great distance.
Our custom shop designed a blank, built by North Fork Composites on HM Toray Graphite, just for this Elite Spec build. It's different than our mag-heavy flipping rod in lower-end power, and in overall weight. During summer months, our customers wanted a BIG (3/4-1oz) football head rod, that could also be used to flip laydowns, grass and brush in the spring. 17-22lb fluorocarbon paired with a high speed reel, and this rod will remove line-stretch with an even power that drives hooks, and keeps fish pinned.
Make no mistake, versatility is built in. The 7'10" Heavy Fast Elite Spec is also great for Carolina-rigs, big scrounger heads, spinnerbaits, Mag-Drafts, and texas-rigs. With it's perfected balance, this rod would be perfect for those all-day techniques... Drag a jig over every shell bar, or flip every bush in the lake!!
Components: Alpha's Low Drag Guide system line the business end of this stick. Designed to pass braid and big line with ease, this durable guide system also reduced overall weight and adds to balance. Our designers simply haven't found a more comfortable and stable reel seat than the Fuji ECSM, so we used that along with high-grade cork foregrip. Finishing off the build, Alpha's exclusive aluminum balance rear cap, lined with Thor's (our mascot) great looks!!!
