I have a 7'6" heavy Berkeley lightning rod it has about 1/4 to 1/3 flex in the tip. Do you guys think it would be good for big deep diving crankbaits.

    Whats the lure weight rating on the rod?  Like A-Jay said - a 6XD is one thing...a 10XD is nearly twice as heavy (nearly two ounces).

    If the rod flexes like a moderate, or moderate-fast action, and your intended bait is within the rod's weight rating - give it a try. You already have the rod so you have nothing to lose...
