I am on the search for a hair jig rod. I LOVE the action of my GLX 902s, but the grip on this rod is split and I am an all fingers forward of the reel stem to help reduce fatigue on wrist/hands when fighting fish. This rod has the perfect tip to throw hair jigs a mile and it has a great parabolic action, but I just can't get past the grip issue. I wish the 902s was made with the prior generation Daiwa Steez grip, the longer tapered, grip, but that isn't an option.
So what rods have you used to throw hair jigs?? I understand that this is truly a specialty application, but an important one for those of us who chase smallmouth.
