THIS IS OUR 35" (WHITE) MEDIUM HEAVY ACTION ROD IT HAS 8 BIG STAINLESS-STEEL GUIDES ITS MADE OUT OF SOLID FIBERGLASS IT HAS A AHITE PLASTIC HANDLE WITH CORK GRIPS. THIS ROD IS A GREAT ROD FOR JIGGING LAKE TROUT AND BIG WALLEYES OR HOOKING IT UP TO THE SNAPPER OR AUTOMATIC FISHERMAN UNITS FOR BIG PIKE, BROWN TROUT AND STEELHEAD. IT IS A GREAT ROD FOR BIG GAME FISH WHERE YOU WANT A STIFFER ROD TO SET THE HOOK AND CONTROL A FISH A LITTLE MORE, IF YOU GOT THIS ROD FOR THE AUTOMATIC FISHERMAN, I WOULD LOOK INTO GETTING THE 9INCH TRIGGER ALSO.
