Evergreen Orion OCSC-67ML+ Lightning Strike

The Evergreen Orion OCSC-67ML+ Lightning Strike is a power-oriented bait finesse rod built to extract tough bass from deep cover where full-size jigs and standard bait finesse tackle fall short. Its blank incorporates Toreca T1100G carbon, delivering a fast-rebounding action that enables low-trajectory casts, precise skipping, and the backbone to horse fish out of heavy structure immediately on the hookset. Beyond compact jigs and light Texas rigs, this rod also handles jerkbaits, walking topwaters, and 3/8 oz moving baits at a high level.

Key features

• Toreca T1100G carbon blank for rapid recovery and powerful hook-setting authority
• Optimized for compact 3.5 g–5.8 g jigs, light Texas rigs, and leaderless presentations
• Low-trajectory casting and skipping performance for reaching far under cover
• Versatile enough to drive jerkbaits, topwater plugs, and 3/8 oz reaction baits
• ML+ power rating bridges finesse sensitivity with the muscle to pull fish from heavy cover

Best for
