Just finished my new favorite.
Just finish this beauty up. It's a MHX CS721 6' light fast extended 5" with a Hyplon grip, Eva butt, SK2 reel seat, 10 spiral wrapped Fuji BMKOG, 1 double foot stripper, 1 BMCOT mirco top, and a AJ454 Single Foot Hook Keepers. I put a Alphas type F on it with Ito Alphas spool, ceramic abec 7 spool bearings, abec 5 bearing added to the levelwind, carbontec washers, 6lbs Sufix Elite and 2 hours of polishing the insides. It balances right under the levelwind and is by far the lightest casting combo I've ever put together. That's one more spinning rod out of the boat this season. It's should work great for small cranks, Jr dog-x's, small jerkbaits and 4" powergrubs. I can't wait for the ice to go!

Very nice and aren't those blanks great for the price? Good work and attention to detail. Very nice reel as well.
Re: Just finished my new favorite.
Thank's 5ph. Yeah the MHX are the best buy for the money on the market IMO.

Re: Just finished my new favorite.
How does this rod fish? Been contemplating on having one built on this blank, albeit unstretched.
Re: Just finished my new favorite.
Great, I've got out three times so far this season and it's been in my hands most of the time I've been on the water. No problem at all casting an 1/8oz jerkbait. I don't think I'd rate it as a true light more of a medium light, at least in my hands it does. I'm thinking it'll be one of my most used rod in this coming season really a joy to fish with.igl00jx wrote:How does this rod fish?
