Quick take
A 6.5 foot medium-power two-piece spinning rod with carbon composite blank suited for general-purpose bass and freshwater fishing.
The Shakespeare Agility in the 6'6" medium, two-piece version is a fast-action spinning rod built on a carbon composite blank. Seven stainless steel guides with titanium oxide inserts and a golf grip handle round it out, with a 6 to 12 lb line rating and a 3/8 to 5/8 oz lure rating. It suits bass and general freshwater spinning, and the two-piece blank is easier to carry than a one-piece rod.

Strengths
