Not every swimbait demands the bulk of a true heavy rod. The ALX Rods SWMR Midstack is purpose-built for mid-size swimbaits, rated for ¾–3.5 oz baits. It’s the perfect match for anglers who need power and control for mid-size glides, wedge-tails, and compact hard baits — without overpowering their presentation. The Midstack also doubles as an excellent mega punch rod and a mag topwater rod.
At 7’11” with a Medium Heavy swimbait rating and a ModFast action, the Midstack balances casting distance, control, and forgiveness. It has the backbone to drive single hooks on soft-bodied swimmers yet the taper to keep trebles buttoned on hard baits. That balance makes it a go-to rod for anglers who fish mid-size swimbaits daily.
The Midstack carries the same engineering pedigree as every rod in the SWMR Series. Featuring a full-sized guide train (10 + tip), leader-knot-friendly design, and a 15.5" ergonomic handle for leverage and comfort, it’s tuned specifically for anglers who demand long casts, smooth loading, and big-bait confidence.
Designed and assembled in the USA, the Midstack is backed by the ALX Rods warranty and built with premium carbon blanks and proven hardware. Every component is selected to deliver long-term performance, so you can focus on hunting giants instead of second-guessing your gear.
