Looking for new jerkbait rod and would like some opinions from some people who own this rod 6'4" version.  I've read where a lot of people like xf action but this rod is moderate.  Is the rod fairly wimpy or do you still get a lot of action? Thanks 

I own that rod. I have been fishing it for over a year. That rod is exactly what Ike says it is.  It is basically a 6'6 or 6'8" rod  with a slightly shorter split handle. This really lets you jerk the rod without smacking my arm. For me I like the action and have not lost a fish while fighting it yet. I would suggest it to anyone looking for a good jerkbait rod in its price range. 

Thanks, what is the rod compared to a regular moderate rod.  I just want somethin with a little backbone to it and didn't think a moderate jerkbait rod would give me this.  I've read pretty good reviews about the rod but nothing on the action

First i am curios are you a member of the Bass College? Your handle reminded me of  someone on there.  

Anyway to get back to the rod.  The rod is 6 foot four inches long. The rear handle measures 12.5 inches in total length.  The rear grip is 2 inches long, it has 2 3/4 exposed section of rod blank, then a 3 inch middle grip, the reel seat, and  lastly a 1 inch fore grip. The foam is really nice firm type almost like cork, I never liked rods with spongy foam.

There are 10 micro guides and the tip guide,  The rod has plenty of backbone in my opinion. If you bend the rod the "moderate tip" section is about the top 16 to 18 inches and then the "power or backbone" kicks in. The rod is no wimp. He says he built it with composite material and it is 60 percent backbone and 40 percent tip. The largest bass I have caught on it was this spring on Dale Hollow I caught 1 smallie that went 6.2. I caught it on a Lucky Craft Pointer 110. It felt great. My rod is matched up with a Daiwa Tatula Type R in a 6.3-1.

No I'm not a member... thanks for your input.  Very much appreciated 

Are you located anywhere near MD or a surrounding state. If so I could meet to let you cast it.
