Designed with Powerlux\u00ae 300 blanks, the NEW Abu Garcia\u00ae Veracity\u2122 offers the strength and durability needed by serious anglers, while remaining lightweight and sensitive. Powerlux\u00ae resin is baked into the blank to fill in evenly around the 40 Ton carbon fibers, allowing a reduction in weight and ultimately a stronger and more sensitive rod. The Abu Garcia\u00ae custom designed Fuji\u00ae soft touch reel seat delivers hypersensitivity around the exposed blank sections, and also improves comfort for all day fishing. Coupled with titanium alloy guides with Zirconium inserts and cork and EVA split grips, the Abu Garcia\u00ae Veracity\u2122 pushes the limits of high-performance fishing rods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powerlux\u00ae delivers a 30% stronger rod while remaining light weight and well balanced* (*On average, based on controlled lab testing, compared to identically constructed rods without Powerlux\u00ae resin). Results may vary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
