New Rod from Cal

Just got my Jabberwock Evolution from Cal:

It's my first 'bent' handle rod. Think I'm going to like(love

) it; matched with my black, Custom Daiwa reel. May get to 'baptise' it tomorrow

and hopefully, will have a pic with a Bass and the new rig.

purdy!!

What's the length and action of the rod? And what are you going to use it for?

Justin: It's 6', 8" in length with MB's "4" rating:

F4 Â½-68XFti Jabberwock Evolution (Medium Fast, Â¼-1 oz., 8-22 lbs.)

I tied a Vision, 1/2oz, Honeybuzz buzzbait on it tonight but I'll probably change the bait out as the topwater bite has been non-existent at the swamp pond for quite a while.

May try a deep crankbait on it?

That sounds interesting Mhood!! Do you have a link to that lure? Thanks.

I found This Link but it seems 3/8oz is what they weigh. Dan's pushing the lower sensitivity range on his Jabberwock Evo at 3/8ths. It's really a remarkable Hot Spot...when you stop, it just freezes in position. Makes a lot of sense to me and D.R.

PS: I have no idea why that URL isn't acting right... Let's try the Cordell Home Page instead.www.cottoncordelllures.com

You might get to cut and paste a bit to get there...

Is that number 6 for you Dan? Looks like you'll definitely have 7 by April!

Yes, 4 new and 2 used MBs. No more for me!
