Carolina rig action

Featured Replies

I'm curious as to what rod action (not brand) you guys prefer for you c-rig's.  Most guys including myself prefer a longer rod for offshore fishing, so that out of the way do you prefer a stiff flipping style rod or one with a little softer tip and more action for the off shore fishing?

I dont carry a Carolina specific rod . I just use a 6'6'' to 7' wormin rod . It needs to be able handle a 3/4 ounce weight .

 I'm personally using a 71 mhf for lighter ones in shallower water and a 73 med heavy/fast and a 76 heavy/fast powered for the heavier rigs in deep water. No issues hooking up or casting. For me a long rod helps me when fishing deep water making a long cast and with sweep setting the hook from a distance.

i also prefer a fast tip not an extra fast tip. 

7'2"MH/H to 7'6"MH/H. I just want a soft tip and good backbone. if you can find a fast/moderate fast or a parabolic, those are good too.
