MondoCat Patriot 

You’ve got the touch! Strong and long-lasting. MondoCat - Patriot poles are assembled in the United States on e-glass blanks. These pole are outfitted with reel seats that have stainless steel components to provide a super-sensitive “feel” for the Big Nibble! After you’ve got a bite, these one-piece poles, sized at 7, or 8 feet, give you the action and leverage you need to pull out your dream flathead or Big Blue!

Everyone on the river will stare at your distinctive Patriot pole because the extra leverage length handles are wrapped in a unique, red, white and blue-colored paracord wrap. The paracord-wrapped handle is easy to grip even when wet or covered with slime. But nearly as good: they’re gorgeous!

Your success is written in steel. Every MondoCat - Patriot pole features a stainless steel hook keeper, stainless steel guides and a stainless steel tip. Even the reel seats have stainless steel components, giving you the confidence to sense the interest of even the most introverted Big Blue or flathead!
