Finesse plastic/jerkbait rod
I’m a big mb fanboy looking for a rod to toss 3/8-1/2oz jerkbaits and zoom flukes on a 3/16-1/4oz ball head in the bay. I first thought windbuster and a Airity 3000xg but I’m not really a spinning fan which led me to looking at a silver wolf. What would be some MB options for those applications?

Megabass X4 Black Elseil comes to mind.

How is the action of the X4 Black Elseil, Is it similar to a Diablo Spec R?

In my hands it's mod-fast with a good backbone. If I could only grab two sticks it would be the X4 BE and the X4 Destruction....if that helps.
I wish I had experience with the Spec R.

The Daemos is finally stateside--you might want to take a look at one of those!

Not exactly Megabass but it’s got similar vibes: check out the Steez AGS 69 Universal Light, it’s kind of exactly what you are describing.

That's a solid choice indeed. The Steez 69M Universal Light is a great jerk bait rod and very versatile in general.Senko_My_Battleship wrote: ↑Wed Jul 19, 2023 5:01 amNot exactly Megabass but it’s got similar vibes: check out the Steez AGS 69 Universal Light, it’s kind of exactly what you are describing.
In the US P5 Destroyer line, the Oneten Special will do what you're wanting to do nicely too.
