I'm hoping someone here can enlighten me on this subject. I hear and read about guys having a rod and reel combo that balances out at X number of inches above the grip or foregrip. My first question is, do many guys pay attention to the balance point on their rod/reel combos? My second question is, if you do pay attention to this, what do you look for? Are you looking for a tip-heavy combo for a certain application? Are you looking for a certain balance overall? I've never given it a thought before, but if it makes a significant difference I'd definitely start paying more attention to it.
