B and M Poles

[Brian Stucker]

Anyone know what material the Bgjp and the C&C rods are made from?

[Smith2013]

They're both graphite poles, if that's what you mean.

What kind of graphite? Are they im 6 or im7 ?

[Smith2013]

That I can't answer. All I know is they're graphite and some of the most sensitive rods in my arsenal.

I have the C&C 14ft rods. I am looking at some 16' Bgjp's. And just trying to figure out how much more sensitive the bite would be?

If you are talking about tip action they would be about the same. BJJP has more of a parabolic bend through the whole rod.

Ok thanks.

[Brian Stucker]

Still looking for some technical specs on theses rods. Thanks

I'd guess they're most likely IM6 rods. Not that that really tells you all that much

I say that they're most likely IM6, because most rods on the BnM site do not specify otherwise ... except the Gold (IM8), Sam Heaton SS (IM6), and the Crappie Wizard (IM7). Most just say they're 96% or 100% graphite blanks.
Their Duckworth Float-n-Fly rod ad does not specify ... but the rod is labeled as IM6.

With IM8 being 100% and IM7 and IM6 lower? Curious cause I fish with the Wizard.

I guess maybe I could get off my butt and go see what it says on the poles
