Benefits and Strengths

The main strength of this rod lies in its ability to combine raw power with user comfort. Its reserve of power helps dislodge a strong fish quickly from bottom structure or obstacles while keeping a progressive bending curve that secures the fight. Thanks to its fast action, the angler feels the vibrations of shads, swimbaits or large crankbaits, making it easier to detect the subtlest bites, even at depth or when drifting in wind. The Magnum Husky NEX excels at targeting large pike and other sizeable predators, particularly when bulky, high-tension lures are required. It allows sustained casting and retrieval cadence without exhausting the angler, making it a top choice for intensive prospecting sessions. By choosing this rod for large predators, anglers gain a reliable tool that helps them get the most out of their bulkiest lures.

Another decisive advantage is its ability to withstand strong hooksets needed to properly penetrate target fish when using reinforced rigs. The rod works along its entire length during violent runs, reducing drops while controlling the fish's trajectory. This combination of power, precision and control makes the Magnum Husky NEX a pike rod ideally suited to rivers, slow-flowing waters and large lakes where trophy specimens roam.

Usage Tips

The Magnum Husky NEX performs best with rigs intended for large shads, swimbaits and other bulky lures used to hunt big predators. Pair it with a robust, smooth reel spooled with braid of a diameter appropriate to the target species, backed by an abrasion-resistant leader. When cranking with diving lures or jigged shads, maintain a steady retrieve to exploit the lure's natural vibrations. For slower swimbaits, alternate pauses and linear animations to trigger following fish. Be sure to properly set your drag to make full use of the rod’s power reserve while avoiding break-offs on sudden strikes.

• Match line diameter to the size of the targeted predators
• Keep fluid casting motions to reduce fatigue during repeated animations
• Regularly check guides and leaders after each fight
