MB jerkbait rod?
Thinking about picking up another rod for jerkbaits, using a Black Jungle Shallow Fast Moving Special, that I will use only for 110+
Rod will be mainly used for MB vision 110 and 110jr. I was think of getting the USA Oneten Special, Hein ( 17' Carbon head JDM ) or Eliminator (17' Carbon Head JDM).
Any thoughts on which is better out of the three rods listed or I'm over looking any other MB rods better suited for jerkbaits?
Rod will be pair with a Steez variant.

Re: MB jerkbait rod?
Megabass makes some fantastic jerk bait rods in both the US and JDM market. The US Destroyer Oneten Special is highly versatile, light, sensitive, and a lot of fun to fish. The Hein is lighter in power however similar in action to Oneten Special, but it can still handle a Vision 110 and a 110 JR with ease. I've fished both of these rods extensively and often use them for techniques other than treble hook moving baits. The extra fast action they feature has become more popular with Vision 110 fans due to their ability to impart a quick, hard darting action on the 110. The added bonus for both of these is the additional versatility for single hook applications.
The Eliminator is a very nice treble hook moving bait rod too. It's shorter and slower in action but has plenty of power to fish the 110 very well. It also makes a great top water walking bait or popper type rod.
The 18 Destroyer Evoluzion F3-68ti Ultimate Griffon is an enthusiast level treble moving bait rod that's ideal for the Vision 110 among many other treble moving baits. It has a slower action that loads and casts the 110 exceptionally well, especially with a Steez variant (tuned up with some ZPI goodies even better). A lot of guys still prefer slower action rods for jerk bait fishing, especially the Vision 110 and it's variants because the hooks are ultra sharp but very thin. This rod excels at protecting those lighter wire hooks and keeping fish pinned.
Best of luck on your search and feel free to shoot me a PM if I can help get you set up with the rod of your choice!

I didn’t think I’d was going to like it but the deep throat custom is not a bad choice I’m just saying

JL - for those guys liking a much more parabolic flex to their jerk bait fishing, that rod definitely gets it done.goldrod wrote:I didn’t think I’d was going to like it but the deep throat custom is not a bad choice I’m just saying

Another MB jerkbait rod if you need more than one/a little more backbone is the Elseil.
Re: MB jerkbait rod?
I think Megabass makes the best jerk bait rods out there
