Bar-Bar rods?

SkeeterRonnie · 02-16-2007, 12:16 PM

I bought one of the 30-50 rods for my Tiagra 16 to fish 22-25lbs of drag (at strike)with.... (60#flouro).

My question is: do these rods run on the light or heavy side of thier rating? I

With those drag expectations you're closer to a 80# stick than a 50#.

Will get those pics of the jiggin rod loaded next week when I have someone here to take them... will get some of this rod with the same weight on it.
