This gives the heavier model a grip configuration better suited to its increased 18–45g casting range and 6–10kg line class without changing the overall Optix design language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSplit-Butt Construction    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Optix models use a modern split-butt design developed around lure casting.

The lighter 2–4kg and 3–6kg models are particularly well suited to finesse lure fishing because they provide the crisp response and feedback anglers want when casting and working lightweight soft plastics and hard body lures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Optix model should I choose?    \u003c\/strong\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 7'6\" 2–4kg model provides additional length for anglers wanting increased casting reach and line control with finesse presentations, while the 7' 2–4kg provides a more compact and versatile finesse setup. The 7' 3–6kg model steps up to a 7–28g casting range for larger soft plastics and hard bodies, while the 6'6\" 6–10kg model handles 18–45g lures and is designed for anglers targeting substantially larger estuary and inshore predators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the Optix rods use Fuji guides?   \u003c\/strong\u003e     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
