SUPER DUTY SPEED STICK
Greg Hackney Breaks Down the New Super Duty Rod Series
The new Lew’s Super Duty series of rods will be full of features that Lew’s has become synonymous for. Super Duty is constructed on premium HM60 graphite blanks with raw graphite finish. The charcoal colored Winn® Dri-Tac handles on each rod; bass fishing models will feature a full handle, and the multi-species rods will feature spilt Winn® grips and full foregrips; all with Lew’s Soft Touch skeletalreel seats.
Along with the advanced grip and handles, Super Duty rods will feature the patented Lew’s No Foul hook keeper and stainless-steel guides with aluminum oxide inserts, with multi-species models adding a zirconia tip for durability with use of braided lines. Super Duty rods will be trimmed out with matching charcoal guide wraps to complete a stealthy look.
Team Lew’s pro Greg Hackney, of Gonzales, La. who is known for his power fishing and monster hooksets, as well as his love of inshore fishing, said Super Duty has the power. “There is no shortage of power in these rods,” said Hackney. “I know I can get ‘em out of cover or deep water, no matter the size of fish I’m after; these rods can handle it.”
