high end cranking rod

Post by kyty » Wed Apr 15, 2020 10:24 am

I know this is probably a old subject but would like to know what the best high end cranking rods are? I'm talking one for each weight.

There are some great JDM rods out there for sure, but two of my favorite domestic rods are the Steez AGS 72MHRB and the Steez AGS 80MHRB. They are a lot of fun.

Wouldn't you know Gary you would list 2 rods I don't currently have, lol! I bought 2 tomahawks off of you guys at the Tackle Trap.

Nothing really I just like nice equipment. I've probably got what I need on hand now just wanting to know what others thought. Saw a article the other day stating that sensitivity matters on moving baits also feeling the blades, grass, bottom etc. I can see that too but I agree with you that it's probably not as important as bottom fishing.

You aren't going to believe this. I just received the exact same rod with a hooligan yesterday and have a evergreen pro stingray 66 coming tomorrow.

That white falcon I bought for some bigger cranks. Is it sufficient for smaller ones too?

I'm pretty sure Dom and possibly RISE are two members who currently have the rod. I don't, I've been waiting for a cherry Cristobal to show it's face..
