LEGIT DESIGN Wild Side High Performance WHPC65L BF

WILDSIDE HP – Baitcasting Models

The WILDSIDE HP baitcasting lineup has been completely updated in both blank materials and construction — the core elements that determine a rod’s true performance. Each model is carefully tuned for its intended fishing style, tackle balance, power, flexibility, and overall durability to deliver the optimal solution for real-world angling situations.

Models designed for strength and torque feature full-length aramid reinforcement, while those prioritizing sharp swing-through feel and balance utilize strategic reinforcement only in the butt section. This advanced construction — unique to Legit Design — allows the rods to achieve both power and suppleness, bending deeply and smoothly rather than relying solely on stiffness. By reducing angler fatigue and enhancing fishability, these rods deliver true ease of use and genuine catch performance.

WHPC65L – For Bait Finesse

A versatile bait finesse rod designed to handle both precise pitching and light retrieve techniques with equal ease. The blank construction balances suppleness, resilience, finesse, and power through a combination of T1100G + M40X carbon with full aramid reinforcement wrapping. It loads smoothly for effortless casting of lightweight lures such as neko rigs and small rubber jigs, while also offering excellent performance with shads and small hardbaits.
