They make a David Fritts crankbait rod.  Anyone here have any experience with them?

    Yep.....I fish a DF76 exclusively for all my deep crankin'. It's glass and 7'6" long so it's a little heavier than a graphite or composite rod but I wouldn't consider deep crankin' with anything else.....and by the way,David Fritts IS THE MAN!!

    For deep cranking and all big treble hook lures I fish a Lamiglas SR705R glass rod. This was designed by Skeet Reese as a very technique specific rod: Heavy Power/ Slow Action. The rod components are top shelf, but surprisingly the rod is relatively inexpensive. List price was $210, but I was directed by Lamiglas to a dealer in their same building or nearby that sold me the rod for $160, to tax and no shipping charges. I don't recall the name, so if you decide to pursue this, you'll need to call Lamiglas.
