Cranking rod

[JohnD.]

Has anyone tried the 7’11 duckett composite?

Junk.

Powell Endurance Crankbait Composite. 7'11 Heavy is close to what you had. Rated up to 3oz.

Just to clarify, these measurements are to the top of the reel seat, correct? If so, adding 4" or so to the measurements discussed above (or subtracting ~4" from these measurements) would make them comparable. For example, the handle length of the X13 to to the top of the reel seat is about 14". That may have gone without saying, but just want to make sure anyone who reads this doesn't come away thinking that there's that much variation in handle lengths on bass rods.

I had to double check, but yeah, it's to the top of the foregrip.

I sold my Dobyns and bought two power tackle rods for cranking. I am not sponsored by them but their crankbait rods are
right on. Hard to describe but the rod just felt like it absorbed the fight from the fish (5lber) better than any crankbait I had ever used which included loomis and Dobyns before the power tackle rods. If you can find one, the Keith combs big crankbait rid also fees very good.
