IKOS Hustler - 7', Medium Heavy, Moderate Casting

The IKOS Hustler is the perfect all-around crankbait rod. It handles cranks diving to roughly 15′ deep with ease. It also maneuvers easily around cover and the soft tip casts a mile when fishing open banks and points. Superb, buttery smooth action from the S-Glass construction while maintaining excellent sensitivity to determine crankbait placement around grass lines and bottom composition.

***Hustler does not feature an exposed blank reel seat due to the diameter of the rod blank***

    Hustler Review

    My first all glass rod - you’d never know it was a glass rod - as light and sensitive as any 7 foot med heavy/mod graphite rod - handles 1.5-sized squarebills and 1/2 lipless perfectly.

    Great Crankbait Rod

    Bought this rod for RK Crawlers, DT, DT, Little John's and such as well as square bills last fall to replace another crankbait rod that for some reason I just could not keep the fish pegged on. Waited a few months to put some fishing behind to write a review. This rod is excellent at a very good price point. Throws baits a long way and has perfect action to keep the little trebles in place. Can say I've not lost a fish yet and this includes several hooked only by the back treble.

    The Go-To!

    This rod is my go to for finding fish!! Throws light cranks exceptionally well, has great feel, and would be a toss up as my favorite rod in my arsenal. I own two if that means anything!

    Great small crankbait rod

    I bought this rod to throw smaller crankbaits. It has a soft tip with enough backbone to get the job done. I would recommend it for anything up to the 15ft range.
