ZOLO Twitch Casting Rod

Twitch-style baits demand precise rod movements and the right type of pressure once a fish commits due to treble hook baits. The ZOLO Twitch is tuned to impart crisp action on jerkbaits and topwater walking baits while keeping treble-hooked fish pinned.

Description

Jerkbaits, poppers, and walking baits rely on sharp rod movements to create the right cadence without overpowering the baits hooks or altering the action in the water. The Twitch’s responsive tip delivers crisp snaps that bring twitch baits to life while its shorter 6'8" length allows anglers to work the bait aggressively without the rod tip striking the water or boat. Once a fish commits, the rod transitions into a controlled bend that protects light line and helps keep treble hooks pinned throughout the fight.

  • Size 90 or smaller jerkbaits
  • Small poppers

Perfect Name

This rod's namesake is spot on. It is perfectly setup for phenomenal twitch actions on baits like topwater walking baits and jerkbaits. The tip is perfect for hard snaps for great action on the baits but still has a great backbone to fight those big fish. I love that it is shorter at 6'8" so that the twitch is easy without hitting the tip on the water or the front of the boat or kayak. The sensitivity in the rod is unreal, even on slack line during the pause you can feel when a fish hits the jerkbait! Easily one of my favorite rods!

Can't put this rod down!

I purchased the Zolo Twitch just in time for the fall jerkbait season. I was able to take it out on four different occasions and was able to catch 16 bass ranging between 1 1/2 to 4 lbs. The Twitch handled these fish flawlessly. Furthermore the action of the rod fished the jerkbait very well. The tip has the action needed to get the sharp jerks and pauses needed to catch cold water fish, but still protects light line and helps to keep fish pinned with light wire trebles(vision 110). The rod is so light and balanced it's almost like not having anything in your hand at all and it's VERY easy on the eyes, it looks great. I own a locker full of GLoomis rods from E6X's to GLX's so when I say I don't want to put my Zolo down that's saying something. In my honest opinion the Twitch fishes better than its price point. I'm very impressed!!!
