    Evergreen Heracles EG Swimming 7'2" MH Mod-fast - killer chatterbait rod

    It hurts me to sell this one, but I am liquidating to pay the Insidious Revenue Stealers.

    Condition is 8.5/10 blank and 9/10 guides and EVA handle is 7.5/10.

    This is a superb rod with fluoro or braid+leader for 3/8-3/4 chatters, lipless, topwaters, walking baits, bigger squarebills, and even 1 oz wakebaits.

    $330 + fees shipped & insured to lower 48.

    PM me for pics.

    It's a fairly rare rod, but you might be able to do a search.

    Here is Brett Hite using it on Toledo Bend for 3/4 oz topwaters.

    If I had to guess, I would say the 1st and 2nd Gen USDM Evergreen Combat Stick 7'3" Shower Blows rod was modeled after this OG Heracles EG Swimming.

    This is a mod-fast taper rod with the typical excellent build quality and craftsmanship of a Made in Japan Evergreen. You can use fluoro, braid/leader, mono, and fish just about any moving bait from 3/8-1 oz. I fish 1 oz lipless, 3/8 - 1/2 poppers, 3/8-3/4 chatters, 1/2-1 oz topwaters, and even 3/8 swimjigs on this rod...and it performs extremely well for all of these techs. Also, wake baits on the 3/8-1 oz range are also great on it.

    i can second @dragon1 - this rod is awesome. Tough one to find these days. I use mine for 1/2 and 3/4oz jackhammers, spinnerbaits, and swimjigs. If you are someone who uses braid then you could power this thing up even further.

    here is everything you need to know @z520brewer

    Thanks brother. I hate to sell her, but I need to appease the Powers That Steal from us.
