TEAM LEW'S SIGNATURE SERIES RODS

 

Mark Rose's lineup of Lew's Signature Series Rods were built with versatility in mind. Rose's series has a rod for each of the techniques he excels at. This offshore angling master has developed a Swimbait, Jig/Worm, Deep Crankbait, and Carolina Rig rod.

 

 

 

Mark Rose takes us through the development, application and specs of his Team Lew's Signature Series lineup of technique-specific rods.

The Swimbait rod is a 7’ 6” Medium-Heavy rod that is perfect for off-shore swimbait fishing. 

The Jig/Worm rod is perfectly designed for a three-quarter ounce or one ounce football jig and a big worm for setting the hook in deep water. This is a versatile rod, capable of pitching bushes and boat docks as well. 

The 7’11’’ graphite crankbait rod is an extremely light cranking rod. The extra-long length allows anglers to make long casts. A soft tip helps protect lighter line when fish surge at the last second while the medium-heavy power provides sufficient backbone to hook fish when they bite. Mark will throw 8XD crankbaits all the way down to squarebills making this an extremely versatile crankbait rod.  

The Carolina rig rod is a 7’5’’ medium-heavy rod with a lot of backbone which gives the angler an advantage when setting the hook at the end of long casts. This technique is still considered “old school” but can be really productive. Allowing soft plastics to be away from the weight and flowing in the water provides a natural presentation that can make fish bite.

These technique-specific rods are very versatile and can be used for a variety of different things.
