Simple Faith Swimbait Casting Rod

It is still in perfect condition! I’ve gone out nearly every night for the last few years now since moving to a place with water access. I’ve gotten 4 pbs on this rod since using it. I’ve used this rod daily and have upwards of 800+ fish on it. Basically the ultimate stress test. I’m telling you, the blank doesn’t even have a scratch on it somehow. Guides aren’t worn down or bent. Grips are looking great! The only issue that I have (which isn’t even important) is the cork butt has very small knicks in the bottom just from dragging on the ground. Thats it! I bought this rod within 30 seconds of them coming onto the market last year around August 9th I believe. Or somewhere around there give or take a day or two. I purchased the heavy/moderate model and it Seriously can throw basically any swimbait perfectly. I was losing so many fish on my old swimbait rod but since the simple faith is so parabolic, I have only lost probably less than 3 fish once they were pinned. Out of 800+ Took it out the same night I got it and immediately caught 4 fish on it and knew right away that this rod was something special. Anyways I am finally purchasing a second one. The extra heavy model, and I noticed you could leave a review. I would have left one way sooner if I had noticed that option sooner. My xh is scheduled to arrive in one hour and I’m so stoked (hopefully fedex didn’t break it lol ). I’m not sure if it was like this when they first came out because I do remember having to wait for it for quite a while, but they do 2 day shipping! That’s f’ing incredible for a 8ft rod tube to be shipped to you in under 2 days, essentially free. Not sure how they aren’t losing money because shipping a rod in that short of time costs near $80-$100. I ordered this rod on Sunday morning and it’s about to arrive at my house today on Wednesday. That’s seriously incredible. If you’re on the fence about getting one, just know that this rod is genuinely the nicest rod in this price range, in the whole world. I’ve built rods before and the fact that this rod is only $250 ($200 when they first came out with $50 shipping fee) doesn’t add up to me. They should be losing money by charging so little for these rods! I’m sure there is more positives that I could add but I’m drawing a blank at the moment lol This rod is all pros, and zero cons! Thanks leviathan for making such an amazing rod at such a dirt cheap price.

Very nice with lighter weight swimbaits, and surprisingly castable with lighter baits in general.

This season I got into swimbait fishing in Wisconsin for bass and I picked up a simple faith Meadium heavy and right out of the packaging I knew that it was the nicest rod I owned. I own rods for over the price of a simple faith and believe me when I say the quality and craftsmanship from the tip of the rod to the butt is well above its price point. And without a doubt has it proven itself this season for me handling 1 to 4 oz swimbaits perfectly and handling fish like a dream.

Its a dream come true. So nice and parabolic. Launches big baits a mile, keeps fish pinned. I could be happier. I feel lucky to have one!!

Love this rod for any treble hook bait from 2-4oz. Very parabolic and keeps fish pinned while fighting.

Amazing!!!!

This is my favorite K9 rod. Feels like it was designed specifically for it. It's for sure versatile in the 2-6oz range, but it has the perfect parabolic bend to really accent the K9.

Rod feels amazing on the hand super light for long hours of swimbait fishing, high quality materials🔥🔥

Love this rod, been fishing it in the salt with A-rigs and big glides, caught a bunch of Striper and a few good halibut on it in the week I’ve had it. Rod bends great, super sensitive, casts far, pairs well with both a 200 and 300 size reel. I’ve been running 40lb braid on a 300 lexa tws and it’s been money. While rated 2-6oz I’d say it runs a little light, fishes with a sweet spot at around 3oz.

Love it
