With all the talk about cows (and breaking rods) in Hatteras and other Long Range trips, I think it's time for me to do some testing on this rod. This is the heaviest duty jigging rod I own. If my back wasn't so screwed up, I'd hop on a plane and test this rod on some deep water bluefins. Since that can't happen, I'll have to rely on hydraulics from a forklift. Come back tomorrow about this time and I'll have some lift pictures.
There's a bunch of new carbon fiber nano resin jigging rods hitting the market. This is one of them. I feel that there is a need for a super heavy duty jigging rod that will still give good jig action and yet be able to take the abuse from these big powerful fish without the angler worrying about a snap when things get crazy next to the boat. Tomorrow, I will find out what all the hype is about as I put this stick to the test.
