Some guys call them fairy wands other guys call them sissy sticks. I call them my favorite rods to use when pounding 5 lb smallmouth bass on lake Erie.

Last necromancy to round this thread out. It is a definite keeper. I got into a wad of them in deeper water off a point last night and the bite detection was on point. Didn't miss a pick up. No issues recommending this rod for tx rigs.

There are a few guys on here that have them. Hopefully someone responds.

I’d do bad things for that zillion

I don't see the need to bring drag performers into a discussion of reels, other than in an attempt to get a rise out of people. A little color never hurt anyone. I would buy the S out of personal order Tatula Type R's with the new 100 frame if they were a thing. Who doesn't like a nicely lubed up d...

Grrrrrr! Those are hot drop-shot setups.

I take it on salty trips...don't know when I can do that again.
