After a little friendly disagreement on rods over the weekend with buddies. I wanna hear your thoughts.
You have to rig up a 3/4 football jig, 1/2 oz 10” worm, and 1 oz. Carolina rig.
I said:
895 crig or football
894 football
873 worm
They argued all weekend that the 873 is made for crigs. Let’s hear your take on it.
Do your friends have any of these rods, do you?
In the end, a rod needs to fit the individual's preferences. So if one likes rod x for technique A and the other does not, who cares? Lol.
Lol. I have a boat full of NRX and Conquest rods.Originally Posted by freelancer27
904c MBR for C Rig and football jig
873c CRR for worm
I've always heard the 873C "CRR" (which stands for Carolina Rig Rod) was too soft for a Carolina Rig. Of course depends on how you Carolina Rig, and, in my case, I like to use at least a 1oz. sinker, so , YES, the 873c CCR would not be the right one for me. Labels, specs, numbers designated by the rod companies really mean nothing. You have to try the rod yourself to be sure, I've seen inconsistencies even within the same manufacturer.
873 best 3/8 and 1/2 jig rod made !
but for what you listed 894 all the way , do all 3 very well !
