A Rod for Maximum Line Speed
Built upon the original Boost series, The Boost Fresh is built for anglers with an aggressive casting stroke to achieve maximum line speed. The rods have shed some weight and actions refined to help you feel the rod load.
Crisp, Fast Action
The Boost is produced from a blend of intermediate modulus graphite fibers giving it the optimal blend of strength and performance. The choice in material allows maximum performance at an affordable price.
Ultimate Balance of Power & Precision
The Boost is the perfect rod for aggressive casters who can’t live without that modern, fast-action rod feel.
Action vs Power Comparison
Action:
Fast action rods feature softer tips than medium action rods and provide a ‘stiffer’ feel. Fast action rods excel in the hands of anglers with more aggressive casting strokes and greater stroke control. Medium action rods are ideal for anglers with more fluid casting strokes and have a larger ‘sweet spot’ for a wider range of casting strokes. Consistently throwing a tailing loop? Your rod’s action may not be a good fit to you and your casting stroke.
Power:
A rod’s power is its resistance to flexing under load. Powerful rods are ‘beefier’ through the bottom half, generate higher line speeds, and are more adept at keeping big fish pinned. Delicate rods are more presentation-oriented, protect light tippet, and are a better choice for picky fish.
Wash all components with warm freshwater after each days use in saltwater. Pay extra attention to the space where the guides meet the blank and the metal parts of the reel seat. Try to keep sand and dirt out of the ferrules. Occasionally use a few drops of any reel oil or grease on the reel seat threads to keep it operating smoothly. Paraffin wax can also be used on the ferrules if needed to ensure a proper fit.
Do not use tape on your ferrules. If you do we’ll come steal all your bacon and PBR.
