Overview
The KastKing KRDCP-5 is a 6'0" medium power graphite casting rod weighing 7.83 ounces, rated for 15 lb line and aimed at bass, trout and walleye.
Graphite construction keeps the blank light in hand for repeated casts through a day on the water. Medium power and a 15 lb line rating put it in the middle of the range, suited to moderate lure weights rather than heavy cover work.
