Super light and sensitive
Ordered from Vexan, and the first fishing rod I received arrived broken in transit. I reached out to customer service to explain what happened, and they immediately helped me out and sent a replacement. When the new rod showed up, complete and in perfect condition, I was ready to head straight out and start fishing.
Big thank you to Ben for reaching out and taking care of everything. I’ll be sure to give an update soon on how the rod performs.

Thank you for shipping the order 9 days ago.
The 3000 reel arrived 3 days ago, it is nice... little big for a crappie combo, but nice. It is smooth, has a smooth drag.
The rod? Don't know it is not here yet.... USPS says it is in Richmond now. Maybe it will be here tommorrow... Maybe after the holiday weekend.
Hi there, thank you for your review! We are so glad to hear that the 3000 reel arrived in good condition and is working smoothly for you. We apologize for any delay in the arrival of the rod, but it looks like it should be there soon. We hope you have a great holiday weekend and enjoy using your new StrikeBack Crappie Combo!
Perfect combo for snakehead or large bass. This combo is sleek, tough, & has just the right amount of sensitivity. Plenty of backbone for those tough hook sets.
Hi there! Thank you for leaving such a great review for our StrikeBack Rod & Reel Combo. We're thrilled to hear that it's been working well for catching snakehead and large bass. We designed this combo to be both sleek and tough, with just the right amount of sensitivity. Happy fishing! Team Vexan
Really nice setup bass and northern pike love this baby
The StrikeBack Rod & Reel Combo from VEXAN blew past my expectations. Straight out the box, this setup felt solid — clean design, smooth reel action, and the rod’s got backbone for days. I’ve been pairing the 7'4" Heavy casting rod with the 7:1 StrikeBack reel and it’s been nothing but performance. Whether I’m flipping heavy cover or bombing casts across open water, this combo holds up.
Drag is smooth. Sensitivity is on point. And the power behind the rod? Let’s just say a few bass got escorted out the water. 💪
If you’re looking for a dependable combo that doesn’t play around — StrikeBack is it.

Reel is awesome no rod has been delivered and shirts are awesome
Bail on my reel wasn't working right. Wrote an email and was sent a new one with no questions asked!
I like it the only thing I would change is the length of the rod I got but that’s my fault.
Absolutely love this combo, and for the price it is unmatched. First, the rod is extremely lightweight and balanced. Probably the lightest 7 foot rod I've ever held. Personally I went with the 3000 spinning reel and it is also legit! It's lightweight while also feeling very high quality, sturdy, and smoooooth.
Awesome service. Product is very good quality.
Dude I Love these rods and I literally cannot believe the value for the quality of the reels. You can feel everything on the rod and it's very strong when I'm slaying these hogs!
Smooth cast, very light weight and super sensitive! Great deal for the money!
I ordered the spinning combo. The reel is super smooth and the rod has backbone and sensitivity. Caught a few bass already on it!
For the price, you simply can't beat this combo. How smooth the reel is for this price point... unmatched.
I really enjoy these combos due to the rod being so lightweight and sensitive to the bite and these reels are perfect match.
Which rod would be best for throwing 1/2 ounce spinnerbaits the 7 foot medium heavy or the 7 foot 4 inch medium
Both of these rods will work great for a 1/2 oz spinner bait. Personally, I would recommend the 7' MH. It's versatility will allow you to fish this rod with many different applications and its lure rating is 3/15oz - 1 oz, so a 1/2 oz spinner bait is right in the sweet spot. The 7'4" has a slightly more moderate action and really excels as a crank bait and chatter bait rod.
Does is come with the reel?
Hi Jacob, yes - the combos come with both a rod and reel.
