Have you tried the UL version? I want something to throw mini jigs down to 1/32.
Yes I have the UL model as well and like it more than the L but I like lighter power rods, but for lures under 2 grams i prefer a more moderate action UL rod because the rod can load almost without a lure and casts well. Most on here lean towards faster actions and firmer rods but to each their own you know.
