This is an Okuma Crappie specific baitcast rod. 6'6", light, 4-8lbs line, 1/16-5/16oz.
I know the pics are a bit blurred, best I can get.
I've used this rod on my Zebco Micro 33 spincast reel and works good.
I ordered a Kastking Zephyr BFS reel and this is the rod I'll be using. Will this work for lighter lures?
Would This Baitcast Rod Work for BFS?

Re: Would This Baitcast Rod Work for BFS?
the lure weight rating seems to be in the right range, but what's the taper of that stick?

Being a crappie rod, it probably has a moderate taper. That rod would be ok for casting lighter lures, especially small crankbaits.

Yep, should be great for small cranks and surface treble baits.

I'd use it, normally I only find super long crappie rods but this is a good length
