    Default Jenko Big T X series rods


    Well,,,I’ve been looking for awhile for a good balanced rod for jigging and decided today to order a 13 ft version of this baby,,,,hopefully it’s as good as the hype….looking forward to trying out some jigging this season…paired it up with my pfleuger president xt and some 8 lb fire line crystal…totally something different then what my most recent rods and line are. Ought to be quite the learning curve….

    I have an x13. It’s a fine rod, a little heavy with the balancing discs on the back. It is a sensitive rod, though, no doubt and made well.

    I have one and really like it. It is a great pitching rod also. I also have a 15 footer and it is a load on tired old arms.

    I have one and use it regularly. I like it. It balances nicely and is also super sensitive. Nice to get out in front of the boat. Plus Jenko has a 3 year warranty so if you break it or whatever you can get a new x13 for $65 better than another $180 if you like it and want another!

    I fish with a 15 ft. version and was not impressed for the amount paid . I really am not a fan of super stiff rods of any length . The Kevin rogers jigging rod in the 13 ft. is half of that and feels better to me . I am not a tournament guy so if its swims further out than 16 ft. I will cast to it . jmo . ps . not bashing both are Jenko rods .

    I have had the X13 for one year plus. Like it a lot. No complaints, sensitive and well made. Does the job for me.
