    Rojo-you make a good point about braid. Know I have no experience with those rods. Thanks. But I am looking for sensitivity. I just don't see how mono can give any rod much senstivity. I have 1 b&m jig pole and 1 b&m ultra lite. I tried mono on both with 1/16 and I cannot feel brush and such like I want. 8-12 fow.
    Ketchn- I hope to hear some sawing this year. LOL. Thanks.
    SK & Kevin Rodgers runs braid.
    I guess I should have ask what you pair your rods up with also.
    No spinning reels, just cheap solo line holders.

    Dana said he fishes the Tree Thumper with 6# mono in the seminar. It does have great sensitivity but others in the brand do too.

    Went to Academy yesterday. I held 3 different 10 foot rods. A ultra lite which I have the 11 footer and like it, a Russ Bailey, good looking rod, but pulled the trigger on the Tree Thumper.
    I plan to experiment Saturday with Mr Crappie 6# mono and 1/16 jigs, weather permitting. But will have the 10/2 PP in the bull-pen ready to go if needed.
    Thank you all very much.

    I bought my Tree Thumper from Dana in the bathroom of a BassPro store.
    True story.
    He was there in his shirt with all the logos on it and we were standing there side by side peeing. We discussed fishing and by the time we washed our hands, he had sold me on the rod.
    I use 4lb mono on mine and find it works well for me. i bet you'll be most happy with your new rod Jay.

    Never saw the point in a 10 ft. rod that has rear seat . Buy an 11 ft. you will be fishing 10 . jmo . Bucks best ultra-light or Sam Heaton .
