Any Suggestions for an inexpensive cranking Rod? Something in Medium power.
I'd stick with the 6:1 - that seems to be the prevalent gear ratio for cranks. I got a 6.3:1 Fuego CT as a B-Day prezzie from my wishlist - specifically for cranks.

If Dobyns is included in the TW 20% Black Friday sales - then the Fury 705CB would be $95...that's the one I'm looking at for my cranking rod.

Winter weather ‘19-‘20
Which is why I told my Mother-in-law right after I married that I would NOT be visiting between May and October - she lived in Boca at the time.

Winter weather ‘19-‘20
I just think back to '91 when we got 30" of snow over the Halloween weekend. Compared to that, a white Thanksgiving isn't that bad.

Winter weather ‘19-‘20
We had some 40s lately too - last week, Emerald Lake was 90% iced over, this morning it was 30% iced over. But we got winter storm warnings with up to 15" of snow predicted for tonight through tomorrown with colder weather following.

The latest sale thread
Ya - a separate deal each day. Kind of like their normal 'Daily Special', but more exclusive items. Don't remember exactly when that starts, but they also have a special on their gift cards during that time.

My budget for a cranking rod is $125 max - so it'd be a Tatula-XT or a Fury as best bets.

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
So does that mean I should bypass a Mojo Glass CB rod at the discount and just go with my first choice which was a Tatula XT - which is the better rod?

You don't really meet him...per-se, but his presence is felt most strongly (usually in your bank account) when visiting sites like Tackle Warehouse.

What Do You Prefer In Rod Length?
6'6" or 7' are my preferred lengths. I have one 6' now, but it's being replaced this winter with a 7'.

I've crunched my numbers - if I don't get the Mojo, then I have to back down to something like a Tatula-XT
