    Shaky heads!!

    What is a good rod for shaky head fishing (baitcasting). I am looking at a vendetta or falcon... Or what action and rod tip do you need??

    Id suggest a fast-action rod capable of throwing down to 1/8 oz...I know Falcon makes a spinning rod model just for shaky heads, not sure abt the casting models.

    I use an st.croix avid med light fast action. I also use a med spinning rod too. I like the whip of the med light, I can make the line dance and shake it. It also makes it easier to pitch and throw.

    Falcon's 5-167 weightless worm rod works great for shakyheads on a casting rod.

    You need a spinning rod the fall is vertical and the fish will bite it better that way .
