Gary as if I needed a reason :big grin: To be honest this might be a tall order, but I was hoping it is similar to the Extreme Mission or like fast tip MB(different series understood of course) but just in a shorter package. Sounds like I may need to just personally find out :lol: Decisions, decisions! Mr. GW thank you as always !

If you prefer a shorter, more moderate action with some back bone, the XXX OneTen is excellent. It has a nice deep flex to the blank but isn't too soft for a 110, it keeps fish pinned well, and makes a great top water rod when the jerk bait bite isn't on.

I second Bronzfly, I own it and absolutely love it for the 110. The shorter rod makes it feel lighter and have more control over how you work your bait. with a good real, I see no sacrifice in casting distance. It performs well for largemouth and worked great for Susquehanna Smallies and handled a few big flatheads too.
