Okay I signed up. I'm no longer a lurker. I took the new outlaw pole and the 10 bags of wasshoppa's to Mississippi with me last week. I give the pole an 8 out of 10. I like cork handles better so that was my only non-like if you want to call it that. I also like the IM7 graphite. All of my other poles are IM6 and they just don't have the same feel. I didn't know what I was missing. As far as the washoppas, WOW! I caught drum, catfish, yellow bass, crappie, and warmouth on them. Best colors I found were chartruse with red flake and blue n white. I fish a little harder than my dad but he was using similar colors in a normal tube jig and I bet I caught 3 fish for every one of his. Thanks for turning me on to those products. On a side note I went to Bluff City tackle to try and pick up some of those jigheads and they still don't have any.
