    I cast with them and troll with them when longlining jigs. Very sensitive with lots of backbone.

    Let us know how you like/dislike it - I'm interested to find more opinions. Been looking at getting the 6' for a couple months now but haven't pulled the trigger. I prefer shorter rods on the kayaks.

    Agreed. Give him a call. I was in his shop last week talking with him. I know he is out of some models, due to lack of production from Covid. Not sure about the 6' and 8', but I know he is out of 9's.

    I needed a couple of 6’ last year or so to complete my trolling spread. Called Ed and got a couple, have no regrets. Good quality, good service and a pleasant person to deal with. I also use them when I take guests and we’re casting and doing the jig and cork thing, they do great. Well worth the money. Have had others that were too stiff and tore the jig loose and some that were too soft and couldn’t control a bonus fish. These are just right
    Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
