Overall Customer Rating: Lamiglas Bass Certified Pro Rods 5 out of 5 (5 Reviews)
Manufacturer: Lamiglas
Series: Bass Rods
Model: Bass Certified Pro

The Certified Pro series dominates the western bass scene. Now that they've etched a few tournament wins into the cork, the rest of the country is taking notice. Unbelievably small diameter blanks retain uncompromising strength and mind-blowing sensitivity. The blanks feature a hand-polished graphite finish and are outfitted with the finest components, including Fuji Alconite Concept guides, exposed-blank reel seats on casting models and premium cork grips. The XC 734 "Topwater Special" will keep you cool when bass are busting on the surface. The XPS 702 X "Heavy Drop Shot" offers a touch more power than the venerable XPS 702 "Drop Shot" for targeting bass in deeper waters with larger weights.

These rods have accompanied Jimmy Reese, Robert Lee, Bill Siemantel and Kent Brown to the winner's podiums. From the lightest drop shot rigs to the largest swim baits, the technically precise line-up enhances the ability of all anglers. Remarkably small-diameter blanks retain uncompromising strength and sensitivity. You fish with more precision, for a longer period thanks to fatigue-reducing balance. The blanks feature a hand- polished graphite finish and are outfitted with Fuji Alconite Concept guides, exposed-blank reel seats on casting models and premium cork grips.

I have a xc705 and I really like it. It is very sensitive, fairly light and very well balanced. They also stand behind their product.

i've fished with numerous lamiglas rods but not the XC704 specifically. generally, i like the certified pro rods. they all seem to have slower tip than other manufacturers (which i like) but fish lighter than their rating (similar to g.loomis rods). they're kinda heavy by today's standards but sensitivity is not a problem.

I have a few certified pros and i prefer them over my g loomis. They're super sensitive but a tad bit on the heavy side. Overall i dont see it as such an issue because my xc704 is 7' and has 13 guides which is more than rost rods of that size. a little weight sacraficed for more even line distribution. I like it best for jigs, its a bit stiff for lighter texas rigged worms in my opinion but thats just my personal preference. I got to take a look at the new certefied pro prototypes at bassjam and they're really nice. They have different guides, split grips, waaaay lighter, and modified actions. They said they were still working out some of the problems to get a perfect action so im not sure when they hit the market

I am a big fan of the Lami Certified Pro series. I have one of their rods, but not that one. They are super sensitive.

They work hard to keep their customers happy.

Great Rod

Since owing and using my Lamiglas (XS 661 ) I have yet to be without catching a fish on every outing this summer, and everyone of them was either a Bass, Pike or Pickeral.
The flexibility and accuracy that I find, when casting, makes the rod a pleasure to use and has cost me just one (1) lost lure this summer. I am about to purchase another Lamiglas G1215 before the season is over.

Bought my first Lamiglas Certified Pro Bass Series Spinning Rod, 7 foot, 1 pc., medium action. I must say, this rod has incredible sensitivity. I can literally feel the bottom of the lake! I owe many fishing equipment and I must say this is one of the best rod I have.
Highly recommended.
