Product Description

We only use FujiTM Alconite Guides for both casting and spinning models utilizing Fuji's "New Concept" guide placement sytem. These extremely strong and lightweight guides are perfect for this application and will provide the durability needed to fight the strongest salmon or steelhead that swim in the waters of the Northwest and Great Lakes regions. When you are connected to the "business end" of a hard charging salmon or steelhead, you'll appreciate the sure grip that our exclusive "Palm Swell" provides. Whether you are using our spinning or casting models, the "Palm Swell" fills the gap created in the palm of your hand with traditional round handles. All fore grips 3 inches or longer feature our custom designed "Triangle" fore grip. This unique and functional design helps to eliminate the natural rod twist that occurs under the pressure of a heavy fish.

Product Description

The Wright & McGill HC82C-1 Hot Shot Medium Casting Rod is an eight-foot, two-inch, one-piece moderate-to-heavy rod. This rod gives you a little more length and a little more power for bigger water or larger plugs. It also features a super-sensitive tip for maximum action from your favorite plug, but it has just a bit more power on the back.

This rod is made from Kevlar--one of the strongest materials known to man. Used in body armor, performance apparel, protective helmets, and now in fishing rods, Wright & McGill designed this rod to battle some of the toughest fish on the planet. Wright & McGill exclusively use Fuji Alconite Guides for both their casting and spinning models. These guides utilized Fuji's "New Concept" guide placement system. These strong and lightweight guides are perfect for this application and will provide the durability needed to fight the strongest salmon or steelhead that swim in the waters of the Northwest and upper Great Lakes regions.

When you're connected to a hard charging salmon or steelhead, you'll appreciate the sure grip that Wright & McGill's "Palm Swell" provides. Palm Swell fills the gap created in the palm of your hand with traditional round handles. This rod also features the custom designed "Triangle" fore grip. This unique and functional design helps eliminate the natural rod twist that occurs under the pressure of heavy fish. To build strong, light, and sensitive rods, Wright & McGill uses a custom blend of high and intermediate modulus graphite and chemically binds this with the Kevlar in the butt section. The result is a rod that looks, feels, and performs great. This rod features a large, comfortable fighting butt that provides additional rod control and leverage, while making the rod more comfortable to hold, even after a long day of fighting all those fish.

The HC82C-1 features a 0.5-2.25 ounce lure weight, 10-20 pound line weight, moderate-to-fast action, and moderate-to-heavy power. This rod also features a Triangle fore grip, Fighting Butt, and a Palm Swell--13.5 inches long in the rear and 3.5 inches in the front of the reel seat.

The Rod I waited too long to find. - Phillip Bass, Jan 07, 2008

Wright & McGill Essentials HS 82C-1 Hot Shot Medium 8'2" 1-Piece Casting Rod
I'll tell you like I was told by my friend and World class Smallmouth Bass Holder.
(If you like to fish, save your money and buy you some good s---.)
"Quote by Pete Vann"
I can't say anything better to discribe this rod. I was fishing with it by 6:30pm the day I got it and caught three, 3lb bass by dark. What a heck of a time I had with this long rod.
(I went to Lowes and got me a piece of PVC pipe the size of the rod, and a cap for the pipe, and made me a rod protecter to keep it from getting broke)
That is the only thing about a long rod. The tips get broken off if you are not real carefull.
