What Jerkbait rod for Vision 110's?

[plastics man]

Powell Inferno 610 CB rod.

I'm on the 704cb/684cb as well. I always have a vision 110 tied on to my 704cb. Distance and leverage, 2 things you want from a good jerkbait rod.

I use the Mike McClelland signature series falcon cara I have used a lot of rods but this one feels the best and cast the bait the best this is the 6'8" but the 6'5" cara split grip would work too it just feels a little short in my hands but I have both

This is a hard rod to beat !!

I use a Kistler Helium III 7' 0" Light/MH Fast. Had a tournament in Michigan earlier this year and was throwing the Vision 110 pretty much the entire day. It was a really fun bite and caught a ton of fish...didn't lose a single one and the rod tip gave the bait the perfect amount of action.

Dobyns 704cb, loads perfectly and can throw the 110 size and even the smaller pointers really well.

Any of you try the Abu Garcia Ike rod (6'4") for jerkbaits?

Yes. It's awesome.

Been using the Megabass Orochi XX Flat Side Special and the Megabass U.S. Destroyer Oneten Special. Love them both.

I'm 6'2" and use my wife's 6'3" rod. I can can put some real hard jerks straight down on the bait and not worry about slapping the water or the side of the boat.

704cb

I'm trying to decide between these two rods for throwing topwater and jerkbaits. The Flatside Special has the Megabass regular action compared to the Destroyer fast action. How much difference is there between the two rod actions? What type of line and lb. test do you use on each rod? Any other comments on both rods? I tend like a faster action rod for topwater and jerkbaits. Would a braid w/ a leader help on the Flatside Special? The price difference is $115($145Cdn) which does have some factor in my decision>

I have tried many of rods and overall I like the 6'8" Gen1 Cumara reaction series rod in a M or MH depending on the bait.

I'm using a Megabass XX jerkbait special and love it. The flatside special gets a lot of love for jerkbaits as well. I bought the Jerkbait special because it was in stock and I'm glad I did. When I'm not throwing a jerkbait, it works great for topwater walk the dog baits too.

I have a Daiwa Tatula SV on each rod with 10lb line. I am a BIG fan of the MB XX line. Love all the models I have including the FSS. If I had never used the OneTen Special then I would not have a clue what I am missing. The US Destroyer OneTen is simply an amazing rod for 110s and PopX etc. Its like an extension of your arm. Absolute pleasure to fish with. The OneTen will keep them buttoned up after they hit. Its crazy the hookup ratio that rod has on everything I throw on it. Between the two its OneTen first but the FSS is no slouch. They do feel different action wise to me and while it is a great 110 rod the OneTen Special is simply better to me for throwing the 110s. Used it today and caught a ton on a 110. Never lost a fish all day on it.

Thanks Mark. Great feedback. I'll get in touch with you sometime this winter about one of these two rods. You got me leaning towards the Oneten Special.

Most important thing you gotta figure out is the length you want a jerkbaits rod to be. I've heard guys preferring 6 ft up to 7' 2. I'm 6 ft 5 and like a 6' 10 rod. You want a soft tip with good backbone. I like the irod gen 2 jerkbait rod 6102c. I'll also use a spinning rod when it's really cold out.
