The FishUSA Flagship Elite Casting Rods give serious bass anglers a purpose-driven lineup crafted with direct input from 2023 MLF Bass Pro Tour Angler of the Year Matt Becker. Proudly made in the USA, this series features five casting models that Becker personally dialed in to cover a wide range of techniques-from flipping heavy cover and frogging shallow mats to making long, accurate casts with crankbaits and finesse rigs. Matt fine-tuned every blank to match his tournament-proven setups, giving anglers confidence in high-stakes situations where every bite counts. Each rod includes a split-grip EVA handle with a durable composite butt section for a solid, responsive feel. Color-coded bands between the handle and butt grip allow for quick model identification on the deck, helping you stay dialed in during fast-paced days on the water. Whether you fish competitively or just want tour-level performance in your hands, the FishUSA Flagship Elite Casting Rods are ready to work as hard as you do. Available in five Elite models: The Twitcher: The Twitcher gives anglers a precise and responsive tool for working jerkbaits, topwaters, and small crankbaits with control and confidence. Measuring 6'10' with a medium power and a moderate to moderate-fast tip, this rod loads smoothly on the cast and snaps back quickly, helping you keep cadence with suspending jerkbaits or walk-the-dog topwater presentations. The length strikes a balance between casting distance and close-quarters accuracy, making it a go-to for early morning twitch sessions across shallow flats or for deflecting small squarebills off riprap. With a bait range of roughly 3/8 to 3/4 oz and rated for 10-17 lb. line, The Twitcher offers the kind of crisp feedback and backbone that shines when bites are subtle but every movement matters. The Utility: The Utility earns its name by covering a wide range of techniques bass anglers rely on day in and day out. At 7' with medium heavy power and a moderate-fast to fast tip, it handles everything from skipping jigs under docks and dragging Texas rigs through brush to burning spinnerbaits across points and stroking mid-depth swimbaits along ledges. The blank loads cleanly with 3/8 to 3/4 oz baits, giving you casting range without sacrificing control, and the tip responds quickly for solid hooksets with bottom-contact presentations. Rated for 12-20 lb. line, The Utility brings the kind of do-it-all versatility that makes it a staple on any deck when the bite calls for adaptability. The Workhorse: The Workhorse delivers the power and responsiveness needed to move fish out of heavy cover and keep them coming all the way to the boat. At 7'3' with heavy power and a fast tip, this rod shines when ripping a spinnerbait through shallow grass, skipping a swim jig under overhangs, or launching a frog deep into the slop and hauling out big fish without hesitation. It handles 3/8 to 1 oz baits with ease and pairs perfectly with 12-20 lb line, giving you the backbone to drive hooks home and the tip speed to stay connected during high-speed strikes. For anglers who want one rod to handle aggressive reaction techniques and close-quarters combat, The Workhorse stays in rotation from the first cast to the final weigh-in. The Thumper: The Thumper gives anglers the ideal combination of length, power, and tip action for moving baits that call for constant contact and control. At 7'5' with medium heavy power and a moderate-fast tip, this rod keeps pressure on big fish while allowing just enough flex to keep treble hooks pinned during high-speed surges. It shines when ripping lipless crankbaits through grass or slow-rolling a chatterbait along hard-bottom flats, giving the bait the right vibration without blowing out on the retrieve. With a working range of 3/8 to 3/4 oz baits and 12-20 lb line, The Thumper covers those key reaction presentations where rod control makes the difference between missed strikes and tournament fish in the livewell. The Dragger: The Dragger rod excels in heavy cover and tough conditions, offering powerful performance for techniques like jigs, Texas rigs, and light flipping. With a 7'6' heavy power, fast to extra-fast tip, it provides a solid backbone for handling 3/8 to 1oz baits and a 14-25lb line, giving you the versatility to target bass in both shallow and deep waters. The fast action tip allows for quick hook sets, while the heavy power ensures solid control when fighting bigger fish. Whether you're flipping through thick vegetation or working a jig in deep structure, The Dragger delivers the sensitivity and strength needed to land your catch.
