Jerry in SC Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 I'm looking for a light action baitcasting rod. I haven't tried the 721 in years, so can't recall how fast the rod is. It needs to be a 6' as I don't fish from a boat and can't transport a longer one piece rod. I have a very nice Volkey BFS UL 6'6" two piece; it has a very fast action in comparison to older rods as I remember them. I can cast 1/8 ounce lures but the fast action is a little difficult for me to handle. I'm just coming back to baitcasters after a twenty five year hiatus. I have a Daiwa PX68. I primarily want to fish light worm rigs like shakey heads or small crank baits. Thanks in advance... Quote
John G Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 The Loomis CR722 seems to get a lot of action eBay. Every time I see one up for bid they seem to be very popular. Don't know anything about the 721 other than I wouldn't want to fish with a light action from the bank where I live. Quote
Jerry in SC Posted September 25, 2013 Author Posted September 25, 2013 I am looking for something more moderate in action, stream fishing primarily. Quote
Super User Raul Posted September 26, 2013 Super User Posted September 26, 2013 If you are looking for a moderate action rod the CR721 is not your rod, fast action it has. I own one and paired to a Daiwa Pixy spooled with 6lb test it´s a really fun rod. Quote
