Alrighty guys I'm looking to get more into flat sided crankbaits this spring on hard cold fronts and how to fish them more effectively. I like the Jackall Bling 55, 6th Sense Crush Flat, and the DT-Flat. What rods do y'all use for your flat siders? The majority of my fishing is shallow wood and grass lines. 

I just started using a Powell 3D max 734 for sqaurebills, it does pretty well,  on board, a 6.4 to 1 Lew's.

I popped a 2.5# yesterday on a Little John 50, spring craw color.  Maybe another squarebill you should look at as well.

Good luck!

Dobyns 705cb glass. Same rod i throw squarebills on. I've heard nothing but good things about the 6th sense 75 flat so I ordered quite a few in baby bluegill, ballistic shad, and gizzard shad. Should be here next week. Pretty excited to use them. 

I use a old tour edition 7' mh moderate Gary Klein rod, I love it for square bills and shallow divers.

It's an amazing bait, I love the ballistic sunfish and the lava craw pattern.
