The Waterloo Mag 4 is excellent for worm fishing. This rod is a fast tapered, extremely sensitive hook setting tool. The 6'6" and 6'9" rods are great lengths for Texas-rigged worms. The 7'0" is a must have for the sweeping hook set of Carolina -rigged fishing. The Lure weight is 1/4 -1 oz and the Line weight is 12 - 20 lb with a Heavy Fast Action.
