The Abu Garcia Veritas rod and the KastKing Royale Legend rod are two great options under $100. Can the $69 Royale Legend be as good as, or even better than, the $100 Veritas rod? I’ll discuss the features of both rods, what I like about both rods, and what I don’t like about each rod. I’ll give my final thoughts and let you know which rod I’m still using.

The Royale Legend reminds me of the Shimano Zodias, but it is $130 cheaper!
Nice job on the comparison. My only complaint is you put it against a 2.0. The regular Veritas is quite different. And price wise probably shoulda went up against the vendetta. Still interesting. I’m debating on trying out some kastking products. But as a kayak tournament angler it’s difficult to determine if people are saying it’s good because of it being good or they want a sponsor. Thanx for the comparison tho. Best I’ve seen yet
awesome comparison. love my veritas used it for years and i actually like the ratchet feature to secure the reel on the rod. Can’t wait for the new KastKing rods tho!
If I can find the link I’ll post it for ya D. It is a story from Gary Loomis back early on. If not I’ll tell you the summary. It really is a good point about rod tech now days.
Very informative comparison. You knocked it out of the box again Devon.
chao ban , can kastking cau ca o viet nam khong co ban , toi tinh mua ban co ban khong
Hi they sound good but can’t find them on Amazon
I’m not to sure we can get that model KastKing rod here in Australia ..I wish we could !
Hay Bro, the TON rating for carbon modules is in fact a world standard. IM etc are company created and are not any kind of standard.
I have two veritas rods one is seven eleven and the other is seven something , what I’ve noticed is that the butt section is way too long for my stature , beer belly , and if I have over sized jacket or a sweatshirt on the heel gets in the way , very annoying , so I just broke out the old hacksaw and cut to fit , doesn’t look very pretty but did trick then I put on a rubber chair leg floor protector on the butt , doesn’t look that great but it worked , so yeah I just screwed up a couple of rods but I like’em
Nice video bro. Very informative and entertaining as always. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.
Since i get my first kastking rod i never take any other rod, all my new rods and reels are kastking now . And i cant be more happy with this gear , i can buy 2 or 3 high end combos for low money . And in my opinion the performance form kastking gear is the best, for me,i cant talk for other people its only my opinion.
I love my Veritas 2.0!!! sick edit bro, i just subbed!
You’re so cute! SNAP
Do one of the kastking and the dobyns Colt!!!
Good job with the review….good speaker..still not sure about this company…will these Kastkings go long term?
Hihi with the vegeta shirt
What toray carbon dude that good shit right there
Great job DEBO!
It’s pronounced “Veritas” not “Veritis”!
Nice break down. I really like kastking products. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work. Look me up too. I subbed. Thanks!
Thanks for info
Great video, very informative. If I had to guess I’d say the KastKing rod feels lighter because the added 3″ allows it to balance better in your hand.
Had thumb down the music
Great video again debo! If both rods were the same price $70 or $100 what ever you want, which would you choose?
Great comparison.
My eyes got wide when you said “break test”! Good video Devon. I have both rods and I am slowly replacing all my Abu Garcia gear with KastKing.
You should do a balance test in future reviews, like show the balance points of the rod with and without a reel along with the reel weight. I feel that this also plays a big part on how a rod feels. Great detailed review/comparison, keep it up!!!
2 piece m/mh spinning for 60..I think I am sold..
have a veritas and casted a 1oz spinner bait and ripped 3 eyelets off hahaha
