need reason to buy all star 845mc rod

Featured Replies

it is 7ft med action xfast would this work well for rattletraps and big crankbaits ? say1/4 to 1/2 weight lures ?

I think you'll hate an Xfast for cranking, especially big crankbaits.  

However, you might like that rod for:

senkos

Ikas

flukes

weightless plastic

drop shot

split shot

finesse jig

shakey heads

sm-med t-rigs

and if it's really as heavy as the ratings (which I don't think it is but could be wrong) any of the above plus a few other things.

You need a reason?

"Because."

That is reason enough to add to your rod collection.  ;D   ;D   ;D

I have an 845 and your list pretty much covers everything the rod works great at.  Very versatile rod.
