I believe Cabela's has discontinued the XML series now and I am not sure if they are going to redesign it or scrap it.


I have 3 of the XML, from about 10-12 years ago.....2 casting, 1 spinning,

1 casting and 1 spinning-----8 - 15#........spinning one, worked great for twitching in November and December.

The casting 10 - 20 pound, just doesn't get used much.....maybe more in near future, "springers".....

Great rods for the price......
