Forgot to add that it's a baitcasting rod. Also bump.

As far as pictures, the rod is mint and is the typical veritas rod. If you are serious about purchasing PM me and I can send the pics, but I don't want to go through the hassle of uploading them online right now.

A 45" scugog musky is no where near 30lbs...

Move up shallower, if you can find where they are they'll be feeding heavy on baitfish, stocking up for the winter. Throw a 4 or 5 inch soft plastic swimbait or fluke and you'll catch em good (if you find them). Pay attention to the water temps, if it's a cold day slow down  or downsize, play around with your retrieves etc.. Jigs are great any time of year, if you're looking for tanks keep a jig in your hand and pitch pitch pitch.

Also look for things that would still hold some more warmth like wood. If the weeds start dying off look for the patches that are still alive, the bass will congregate to that.

If you can't afford it don't buy it.

I have a 6 gear Shimano Citica with new 55lb Diawa Samurai Braid. And I if you're looking for a medium action rod I have a abu garcia veritas as well. Great reel, beyond excellent rod.
