Flats Blue Rod

Featured Replies

Prob going to buy this 7'2" Blair wiggins flats blue rod and was wondering if a 3000 fin nor reel would be a good set up?

I have seen that rod dozens of times and everyone raves about it, been tempted to get one myself. I really do not know much about heir reels, but I would try and mount the reel on the rod to get a feel, if that's possible. The reel has good line capacity and it doesn't lack in drag. From the picture, I like the cranking knob on it.

I don't what your plans are for the rod, but if it's for inshore fishing I'd opt for the 7'6 model 8/20 with 1/4-1 oz lure range, be a nice double duty outfit. If it's for bass fishing I'd select a smaller sized reel, not really a whole of difference in both the Fin nor 2500 and 3000.

Thanks dude I'll prob get the 3000 fin nor and my dad has a 4000 fin nor on a ugly stick intercostal rod 7" and I'll prob try that one on the 7'6 rod!

They are good rods. The action is a little lighter than it says though IMO.
