I've practiced a lot with a variety of rods, reels and baits and currently here's what I've found that works for me. A 6'8" to 7' rod with a little stiffer tip and any of the Tatula reels because you...
I use the MH 7'6" with the full cork grip for anything over 10'. I like the rod just fine. Got it at a local tackle shop for ~$55. I typically use straight braid and it becomes very sensitive. I can...
I've come to the same conclusion, just trying to decide what rod to go with.

I didn't mean to give the impression I want a broomstick rod, prior to your suggestion I hadn't considered going to a shorter rod for jigs. Now I'm interested.
I weighed the jig I used last and...
Thanks for the suggestions. I was surprised at the suggestion of the 804. Out of curiosity I pulled out a couple of shorter older rods today ,6'6" and 7' both rated to 1 oz, and tried pitching 3/4...

Would love to hear your feedback on the two but based on the temperatures lately it will probably be a while before fishing conditions improve. Let me know if the Orochi is crap and you decide not to...
Thanks to all. Since I can't find the Orochi I guess I'll have to make a small compromise.
If you've fished the Orochi and Levante FSS could you tell much difference between them? I throw crankbaits pretty often and I got a real hankering to get a FSS.
I got the Spinner Bait Special for...
Recently got one on sale. I've used it on one outing and believe I've found my perfect spinnerbait rod. Threw 3/8 to 7/8 into grass with no problem.
Just for grins I also tied on a 3/8 jig with...
Recently started using the GLX 843 and love the rod but I'm curious if the Hammer 6'9 "Hvy may be just a little more accurate (shorter length) for target casting 1/2 oz. spinner baits? I'm fishing...
