{"product_id":"vco-ice-rod","title":"Viral Cast Ice Rod","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilt for cold mornings over a fresh hole at Blue Mesa, Lake Granby, Vallecito, Vega, or Rifle Gap, the Viral Cast Ice Rod is a $164.99 pre-order available in two lengths: a 28\" Light and a 32\" Medium-Light. The 28\" Light gives you extra tip flex and clears the fabric walls inside a flip-over or hub shelter, while the 32\" Medium-Light adds backbone for deeper hooksets and hole-hopping outside in the wind. Each rod features a matte black blank with neon lime and aquamarine thread wraps, and ships to you from Grand Junction once our batch arrives. No ship date yet. Full refund any time before it ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"vco-pdp-tool\" aria-label=\"28 inch vs 32 inch Ice Rod Selector\" style=\"margin:1.25rem 0;padding:1rem;border:1px solid rgba(92,225,230,0.35);border-radius:10px;background:rgba(14,39,64,0.38);\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:0;\"\u003eChoose Your Blank: 28\" Light vs. 32\" Medium-Light\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0.25rem 0 0.75rem;font-size:0.9rem;\"\u003ePick how and what you fish to see which Viral Cast Ice Rod ($164.99 pre-order) fits your winter setup.
