Agree with this, I have several Jb rods, and each has a size range for Jbs where they perform the best Being in clear water its a heavy used technique around here. What performs for a 78 pointer is not good for a +2. or a spoonbill. Had 4 different Jb setups out last night, and in the wind and rain, I had a good night, I doubt I could have only used one rod for the different baits I was throwing.
