    Destroyer P5 Bait Finesse

    I see the Hein has been rebadged in the P5's as the Bait Finesse. Has anyone tried this rod for 1/8 Okishira Screwheads with a Spark Shad? I'm looking for a casting setup to throw these and smaller spybaits. No need to tell me I should use spinning gear for these applications. I don't like using spinning gear for anything other than dropshot and I can cast these lures just fine right now with my current inventory of rods and reels - I'm just looking for something that might do the job a little better.

    Amazing rod, but then again, the P5's in general are the best Megabass series since the X7 bar none. I like it a more than than the 16 Destroyer or Carbon Head version. It is noticeably slower in action than the other two which lends itself nicely to some more treble moving applications, but still has plenty of power for light single hook applications like the Okishira. Pick one up, you'll be happy you did.
