@woolleyfooley it’s the new ones for 2025. They use them in videos when they first came out and then the ones in the showroom tht ppl handle they sell them as used with tags so they have been handled but not fished. I don’t have any higher end spinning rod to compare it to but I would put the sensitivity up there with my steez ags bait casting rod and my p5 rod but it’s not nrx sensitive. For the 300 I paid it was 100 percent worth it but for 550 I would probably go with Megabass p5 or spend the extra and get nrx

I have a solid tip spinning rod that I’m using for the good ol minnow shaking and absolutely love the rod. Picked it up when they ran a sale on used rods which mine still had the tags on it and grips still wrapped in plastic. Got it for 299

Anything from throwback is awesome. I’ve had good luck with the cheat code and the metro. They are hard to come by sometimes but the metro is definitely my favorite

Osp high pitcher max, Megabass sv3 and war eagle are all I use. Prefer the Osp over anything. Ordered all mine from Japan lure shop and makes them worth it but I would still pay full price in the states for one they are that good

I would use it like that. I only use the 2 rods so i dont have to retie. Before I got the fmj I was using the shimano expride b 7 2 mh fast for texas rigs and for the price its not far off from the other 2. I still use it I normally will have a creature bait tied on it. I feel like the bmg is closer to the power pitch over the fmj.

I have the power pitch and the fmj and i love both of them but I feel like the fmj is more sensitive and also feels lighter to me. I feel like they both have the same power but the steez feels more moderate in a way. personally I use the power pitch for 1/2 and 3/4 oz jigs and use the fmj for my texas rig setup usually a 5/16 or 3/8 weight with normally a geecrack bellows stick or a owner beast hook and a bellows gill or bellows shad
