Pursuit Of A Cranking Rod For Myself (Harder Than I Thought!)
I have a 7' 6" Veritas by Abu Garcia (winch series), which is their cranking series, and I love it, super light, great action, and a good price.. I'd suggest it for deep divers and mid divers, great rod overall

Kentucky Lake -April 1-8
I'll be going to Kentucky Lake from apr 1 - 8, there is a full moon coming this week and that will bring spawning bass into the coves and much more into the bays. Any key spots or specific places/depths to fish? thanks

Line For Spinnerbait Rig
12# Seaguar InvizX is a line I would consider throwing it on, the reason being is, Seaguar InvizX has significant stretch for being a floro, most people like SOME stretch when throwing a spinnerbait. Plus InvizX is a super soft, supple, low memory floro, although invisx sucks for bottom contact fishing, I love cranking with it. I personally use 12# P-Line 100% floro, because when I spinnerbait fish I'm up close and personal in buck brush, laydowns, and stumps, so I need minimal stretch, I'm also a guy who does ALOT of slow rolling, 95% of the time I'm spinnerbait fishing I'm slow rolling it. If you like to slow roll spinnerbaits I'd go with P line 100%, but if you burn them, or just use a steady retrieve pick up some invizx!

Carrot Stix Please Opine
I have 3, they're good rods, light and sensitve, decent balance too. About as sensitive as a Crucial.

Skeet Reese Rods
I have a skeet rod, and if you do get one don't get the micro honeycombs, the tip eye will bend and fall out on you unless you replace it. If it was a triple foot guide on the tip it would be a good rod for the money, that and the bad sensitivity are the only down falls. I would get a different rod if i were you.3

&I think CXX is stretchy, guess I REALLY will have to stick with flouro for most of my applications other than topwater.
-
Mono Or Copolymer With No Stretch?
I do know Sufix elite has lower stretch than most monos i have felt. You guys dont even know any monos that have "lower" than usual stretch, or good sensitivitie it and hooksetting power?

7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
You do a great job on this forum and i appreciate, you help me with alot
-
7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
Yes I do it all or the time and that's why I want a longer rod so I don't have to, in a sense, "kneel", I would be able to just put the rod tip in the water for extra depth. And Quanjig, I have been fishing avidly since about 12 I am now 17.
-

-
7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
Thats probably what i will go with... if i go with a 7 6 ill get a duckett MH they all have pretty soft tips
-
7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
Very true but if you put a 10oz reel on it you should be okay. Hey! I may get a 7'6" rembering how horrific balance is.... my carrot stix(7'6" heavy balances OK with a 200E i think i want to put a sx or stx on it
-
7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
Length = further casts (debatable) giving the lure more time to dive, length also = putting the rod into the water and the longer the rod the further you can put it into the water therefore the deeper your crankbait is going to go.
-
7'8" + Length Deep Crank Rod?
7 8 or longer bud, 7' is way too short for what im doing, I need to get down super deep
-

Invizx For Jerkbaits?
Hooligan im not sure if you have ever fished invisx but its less dense than other floros in its class which gives it its stretch.... being less dense it also makes it less apt to sink. I fish it with jb and it suspender rather well
-
Invizx For Jerkbaits?
Never fished it with jerkbaits but I can tell you its a sinking flouro line and has a little bit of stretch to it therefore being ideal for jerkbaiting, it has more stretch than normal floro but less than mono, making it ideal.
