Not looking for any big name, just something to throw small/shallow cranks with.... 6'6" or longer, medium light to medium action.... What do you have???
Did you sell the Kistler Graphite Plus KCBCM7- $ 80.00 you had for sale in Sept.? That would have been PERFECT. That rod is rated for 1/4 - 3/4 oz. baits. If you still have it, I can work a trade with some cash (mine) for it.
Bruce, I'm using that rod now for traps and deeper crankbaits-- The rod specs for that rod should read more like 1/2-3/4oz- as it doesnt throw lighter cranks very well.....
I just bought one, haven't used it yet, but the 7'-0" seems to have a bit more tip than the 6'-6" rod in the same composite casting model. If you want to get rid of it, let me know. I'll buy or might have a rod to trade, don't know if you looked at the rod Eli bought from me last meeting. . . I have one left and I really like it but might consider a trade (+ cash) for your Kistler. I use it for traps mostly. It's a Diawa Procaster in 6'-6" med. with a moderate action. IM6 graphite, 10 guides, very nice rod. Forget the lure weight rating but it does 3/8 - 1/2 oz traps perfectly. I've also thown 3/8 oz spinnerbaits and shallow cranks with it. The moderate action is nice on treble baits.
Bruce, Ill think about it... I wanted to keep the kistler for the deep stuff and pick up something else for the small things..... Ill let you know
Ok Bruce, I found a couple deals on a few new rods... I'll let that kistler go for 70.00 if your interested....
I'll take it, Thanks. :grin:
Ill bring it to the potomac, unless you want it before hand call me.....
Potomac is fine. Thanks.
