We designed them as bottom contact rods but some of the actions will work for multiple lures.

careful, big-bass...great minds run along the same track.

but, then again, so do train wrecks. :shock:

seriously, anything from 5'9" to 6'3" in m/f would work.:big grin:

They will be 6'8" and 7'2" models and a special spinning model that is 7'6". No shorter rods right now in the line up. Maybe later...

The hook keeper is nothing like the Crucial rods with the exception of the d-shot model.

Any chance the production models will, unlike the models shown in the review, have aluminum windings checks?
