Omega Finesse Swimbait Casting Rod

The Omega Finesse Swimbait Rod is built for anglers fishing lighter swimbaits where precision, control, and responsiveness matter most.

Designed with an extra-fast action, it delivers a quicker response and tighter control—ideal for smaller treble hook baits, finesse swimbaits, and crankbait-style presentations.

This rod is tuned for situations where accuracy and feedback take priority over brute power.


Built for Light Swimbait Applications

Finesse swimbait fishing demands a different approach.

Designed for ½–2oz baits, this rod allows you to fish lighter presentations effectively while maintaining control throughout the cast and retrieve.

Designed for throwing your Deps 115s, Catch Co Baby Bull Shads, G2 Shell Crackers, and everything small.


Faster Response, More Control

The extra-fast action provides a more immediate response compared to traditional swimbait rods.

This allows for:

  • more precise bait control
  • quicker feedback
  • better handling of lighter baits

Sensitivity Where It Matters

When fishing lighter swimbaits, subtle feedback becomes more important.

The Omega Finesse is tuned to transmit what your bait is doing—whether it's contacting structure or moving cleanly through the water.


Built with Proven Components

  • Built on a high-performance Toray carbon fiber platform developed with North Fork Composites, designed to maintain responsiveness while handling lighter bait applications.
  • Equipped with Fuji K-Series double-foot guides, delivering durability and consistent performance under load.
  • Features a Fuji ACSM exposed-blank reel seat, allowing for increased contact with the blank—enhancing sensitivity and improving feedback during the retrieve.
  • Finished with carbon fiber split grips, reducing overall weight while improving balance and responsiveness. The split design provides a more direct, connected feel preferred in finesse applications.


    Why Finesse

    The Omega Finesse is built for anglers who want maximum control and sensitivity when fishing lighter swimbaits—without sacrificing durability.

Amazing

This is probably the 2nd best rod I’ve owned. I love my XH but this rod is awesome! For anyone getting into swimbait fishing this is a great rod to learn to basics.

Multi use

I don’t have every possible SB rod, but I have a bunch and this one my favorite. If it’s got a bill or vibrates with trebles then this pole will drag it. I recommend putting the Calcutta Conquest DC 100 on it.

Rod is gorgeous and well crafted, super light and sensitive. It's exactly what I was hoping it'd be and then some. Love the locking nut on the real seat! One of the main reasons I got this particular rod was to dead walk a tiny klash, which can get old fast depending on the rod. This rod is so light and the heavy-fast allows me to dead walk the TK with ease and fatigue is much less over time compared to other rods I own. Of course it throws the smaller swimbaits it was designed for well also, but I think it'd excel as a good frogging rod, and anything in the weight range with treble hooks. I wouldn't be afraid to throw a large crankbait, topwater spook or something, even bigger chatterbaits or 1/2oz stealth blade with this rod

This rod is UNREAL. I cannot believe how light it is. I weighed it on my scale and it is the same exact weight as my 7'0” M conventional rod from a competitor who uses “high modulus” 40 ton graphite blanks. Incredibly light, incredibly sensitive. Leviathan knocked this one out of the park. This might be my new favorite rod. There is simply NOTHING else on the market like it. Do not hesitate to buy this rod. Simply amazing.
