Abu Garcia Veritas™ and Verdict™ Rods

The angling world is buzzing with the release of these new rods from Abu Garcia. The Veritas provides exceptional compression strength by incorporating NanoTechnology into the design of the rod. Also new this year, the Verdict brings a whole new meaning to versatility with the revolutionary Extending Handle System. Poised on the cutting edge, Abu Garcia rods deliver precision and exceptional quality when you need it most.

Lightweight is all the rage in rod design, yet many designers ignore the most important factors of balance and strength. The Veritas series of rods provide extreme lightweight design and focus solely on the balance and compression strength anglers must have. The new Nano Technology manipulates graphite on an atomic level for improved compression strength. Now you can count on your rod to stand up to nicks and dings that make other rods snap under pressure.

• 30 Ton Graphite Construction with Nanotechnology for Decreased Weight and Increased Compression Strength
• One Piece Double Anodized Aluminum Screw Down Creates a Secure Connection
• High Density EVA Handles are more Durable and Comfortable
• Abu Designed Extreme Exposure Reel Seats Provide Increased Blank Contact and Sensitivity
• Titanium Alloy Guides with SiC Inserts Create a Lightweight, Balanced Blank Design
• Texas-Rigged Hook Keeper for all Bait Applications

Here is a review from back in February 2010 over at Tackle Tour.

I look forward to getting my hands on a few of the new Veritas rods.
