I say, send it over and I'll try em and let U know. Tie on one of dem blue flash jigs too.
Mo, I have the Sam Heaton, BNM Ultra light and also the Ozark. I was a Sam Heaton all the way until I got the Ozark. I think it’s lighter. It’s the first rod I will pickup when I go fishing. Tight lining in tree tops it’s hard to bet. I using the 10’
I prefer a rear seat rod also, let us know what you think. I moved the reel seat on my new Salter's pole all the way to the back of the rod, it works well like that. I have the Sam Heaton s/s in 10' also.
I agree, I think the Ozark is a lil bit lighter than the Sam Heaton.Quote:

I've had a Sam Heaton for about 5 years, and I really like t for jigging. I put a Pflueger auto fly reel on it. It balances really well with that. I won a BnM jigging pole at the D'Arbonne get together. I like it too, but haven't jigged with it much. Spider rigging with it, I like that the first 6-8" of the tip is soft, and shows a soft bite better than any rod I've got. Others are BPS Wally Marshall rods. The newer ones are good, 2 out of 3 of the Crappie Lite rods broke. BPS did give me credit towards the newer WM rods.
You will not be disappointed with the ACC.
Another really nice rod is the Lew's Wally Marshall Pro Series. Model #WMPSR10ML-RS
ive got the sam heatons, acc's and b&m tree thumper. there all good but the tree thumper is my favorite. its light with the best backbone of any of them IMHO. i much prefer rearseat rods for jigging.
I got an Ozark (10ft-11 guides, light) and a Quantum Bayou Sac-A-Lait Special (10ft-10 ceramic guides, very light) both rear seated. I've been using the Quantum for about 3 years and got the Ozark last year. The Quantum has a better feel for me and is my go to when single pole jigging. The Ozark seems to have a little more backbone and was a better buy for the money...heck Grizzly Company now selling it for about $35.
I'm not catching them hogs most of you are getting into but the Quantum Bayou Sac-A-Lait Special been pulling them sacs and chinquapin in before we went on lockdown. Anyone used or have a Quantum?
Never heard of the Quantum bayou sacalait, appreciate the info

I love the 10’ ozark rear seat... got 4 of em haha but I did pick up a 10’ acc rear seat last year and I like it a lot to it’s a great pole... only complaint is the guides are a little big and when wading in heavy cover they seem to grab everything haha but none the less I always seem to go back to my ozark

Yeah, Mo Slab...I believe it was a special build done by Quantum many years ago from a Xtralite perspective. The only place I've seen them since are at Grizzly Company and occasionally on Ebay.com.
Wife told me to stop looking for that one rod and use the 4 that you have. :-) I'm going to keep reading the posts so I can find the
lightest and most sensitive rear seated rod in 10 or more feet. Let me know what that is. Thanks.

I've used a lot of different ones. Last spring I bought an ACC. Best pole I have owned, sensitive and a lot of backbone.
Gonna try an ACC nextQuote:

Hey Marty I wanted to chime back in and say I really love my new Ozark rear seat 9ft rod from Grizzly. Caught another hard pulling 25 big bream yesterday with it. Coupled with a Pfleuger mini or Zebco 33 Gold Spincast Fishing Reel closed faced trigger spincast reel ( have both, still deciding), its perfect for my use. Very glad you brought this up! Thanks!
