Carrot Stick Actions

Featured Replies

So I "bought" a Legend Tournament Big Cranker during the Reed's sale, and was told it was shipped on the 15th, only to get a call the other day that it is out of stock and they can't get me another rod. So now I have my heart set on the carrot stick, which is probably the rod I wanted the whole time.  :)

I'm confused by the action and power listings. Delo's has all the powers listed as Fast. And the actions as MH and Parabolic. How can you have a Parabolic Fast Action rod?  :-/

The rod is a fast action.  Trust me you wont be dissapointed.  Its the lightes rod I own, next to a Steez.

I too was impressed. Glad tin2win ordered two  :)

If memory serves, the baitcasting rods are parobolic and the spinning rods are medium........

Nah these are all casting.

     CLTXS691P-C                6'9"        Parabolic        Fast        1/4 - 3/4        10 - 20 lb        1         $149.95

     CLTX691MH-C              6'9"      Medium Hvy      Fast      1/4-3/4      12-20      1      $149.95

     CLTX721P-C               7'2"      Parabolic      Fast      3/8-3/4      12-20      1      $149.95

     C731MHC              7'3"      Medium Hvy      Fast      3/8-7/8      12-25      1      $149.95

So the actions are fast even though they are primarily crank rods? Are the parabolics more crank specific? What is the difference between the two 6'9".

Ya that is confusing. Fast and parabolic are action ratings, and MH is a power rating.( At least this is what I thought. )

On the e21 web site the action and power ratings seem to be different than Delo's

I guess I'm still confused. Just tell me which one to get for cranks/top.  ;D

If I remember right the Parabolic actions were mainly found in glass rods, the action actually shows up and can be felt all the way through the grip and seat section (moderate). The Standard graphite actions would list the backbone powers of (MH=medium heavy, H=heavy, etc.)

Also if i'm remembering right the two have taper differences in the blanks.

Just my builders .02¢

Tight lines All!!  

It looks to me after checking out that link to the site, that the MFAST Action rods are crankin rods. Since they are mostly M powered. I could be wrong but that's the way it looks to me. I was looking a the Boyd Dukket Gold ones though.

Jus tgot done looking at the LTZ models, and I saw the Parabolic Actions. Who ever thought it was listed as Parabolic and fast were mistaken. The Actions are Fast, Moderate Fast, and parabolic.

In my opinion The Mod. Fast would be better for topwaters and jerkbaits since it will have more of a faster action to work the baits, and the parabolic action would be better for the cranks baits.

If I remember right the Parabolic actions were mainly found in glass rods, the action actually shows up and can be felt all the way through the grip and seat section (moderate)]

Thanks David....I have been wondering what Parabolic action was.
