I’ve have always liked bait casting equipment over spinning so I decided to build a extremely light weight UL rod in a bait casting set up. Now I just have to order the Aldebaran bfs reel from Japan for it. But might mod out a Aldebaran I already have, I haven’t decided on that yet. I had to find a blank that could load up a 1/32 oz jig so this 6’6 blank is a whip stick and the guilds took a lot of playing with to get just right. The blank has so much flex and I ended up having to put 12 guides plus the tip and figure the spacing out as I built it. Since I had to put so many guides I ended up going titanium torzite and it still ended up under the 2oz mark I was going after. So I guess we will have to wait and see if this was a complete waist of a lot of time and money or a success.
