## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durable and cost effective
*by E***L on May 1, 2025*

Love the entire kestrel line. I own 3 of these now. One spinning with the kestrel sfs and the other paired with a valiant eagle 2 and the kestrel elite. On the elite reel (fantastic bfs reel) the brakes did take a while to break in but now the reel cast better than my shimano. This rod can easily handle larger fish despite what some reviews suggest. You just can’t boat flip a largemouth. Next I’ll be getting the light 3 piece rod to really get that distance in wanting but love it for trout and smallmouth bass

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The perfect rod!
*by A***R on February 25, 2025*

This rod breaks in 3 pieces so it’s so super easy to transport and its length doesn’t get in the way. It’s lightweight and has amazing action. This is my favorite bass fishing rod. It’s an excellent value!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great BFS rod!
*by A***N on July 21, 2025*

Paired with a shallow spool casting reel. Rod is light weight and sensitive. The reel seat is secure. Very pleased with this purchase. This rod makes 3-4 pound bass feel like trophy fish. Lots of fun so far!
