WRONG DESCRIPTION ABOUT THIS ITEM

Chris

Phenix PSW809XH-J is not "Silver Reel Seat". I ordered this one and received rod with normal reel seat just like basic model of black diamond series. It differs from picture shown.

Phenix Rods, if your not fishing one, your missing out!

Deckhand rods are pretty command out here on the west coast. This is my fifteenth Phenix rod and one of my favorites. This rod is sweet, awesome action, light tip, one of the best rods for live bait or throwing iron. The grip is nicley wrapped and offers great none slip. One of the big benefits of a deckhand style rod is that you can put your reel where ever it feels best (elbow… read more from the butt cap to your hand/wrist is the norm). If your looking for a heavy 30lbs rod this is the one, match it up with a really nice star drag reel and you"ll be casting lures a country mile. Phenix rods are very thin, very light and almost feel like a bass rod, but have a ton of backbone to pull on some big, big fish. The standard Black Diamonds are more parabolic (good bend through the rod) than the Hybird's, a Hybird is stiffer and better for heavy action applications. Go get a Phenix and you'll be selling off your other rods on fleabay.

Almost There......

Love the blank, love the action. The part I am not so in love with is that the fancy shmancy reel seat tightening rings seems to always shake loose even with the "O" ring. The other part is that the hypalon grips are really skinny, I prefer a little more diameter to the grips......

I would recommend the 7' H or Xh rated rod for this reel, going to make a very solid, versatile combo for many fishing applications

Asked by Claudia Sandoval 6 years ago

I want to use the PSW700XH for blackfish, cod, deep ocean fluke, and offshore sea bass. Would this be a good rod? Also of it was it is the maximum amount of weight which can be used.

Post an Answer
Donald 6 years ago

The PSW700XH can be used for the application your intending to use it for. According to Phenix the proper max weight would be 12 oz to get the best response from the rod.
