    Default JDM Ultralight Rod


    How many of you guys in here are JDM fans? I like the USDM Rods. But it don’t suite me well. Tried different company and haven’t good results. Got as far as picking up a phenix iron feather. With bad taste in my mouth. But I’m a good fan of Majorcraft Truzer. Probably will get more JDM ultralight.

    Alphahawk has posted loads about JDM rods in the bream forum. He's the resident JDM guru.

    I have one JDM rod: a Yamaga Blanks Blue Current 6'5" -- best UL rod I've ever owned.

    I have over 25 JDM rods - been using them exclusively for the last 2 seasons. Majority of the rods are Major Craft UL or Lite Ajing, Mebaru, and some Trout.

    Yes, I have your rod from a good buddy of mines. Probably the lightest ultra light rod I believe for that length.

    I am dabbleing in the JDM rods. Have so far bought 2. I have not had the opportunity to try them out but they feel great in the hand.

    I don't have any JDM rods. I opted for the St. Croix Avid 6ft6" ultra light. This is a concept rod and I love it. Weighs 2.5 oz, sans reel, and will flip a jig a long way with 2# line.
