TorqueConverter Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 I got fortunate enough to nab some gear at sponser prices and bought what I thought was a big bad flipping stick only to discover it was a cranking stick so now I'm the proud owner of a 7'11 extra heavy Veritas 2.0 Winch rated 3/4 oz to 2 1/2 oz. Kid in a candy store glee blinded my vision apparently. I did break my KVD 7'10 MH Launcher deep cranking stick a year ago but his badboy is way more stiff than that thing making it useless for the DT20s and DD22s I fish on the deep side on things. Too stiff even for my bigish wake bait presentation too. Already have a pike and a musky stick but maybe I can use it for those species as well? I can't see myself throwing the 20+ monster cranks but maybe I keep it around if I decide to? There's got to be something I'm overlooking that can make this thing worth pairing a reel to and have up on the deck. What would you with on this rod? . Quote
Grantman83 Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 If the rod isn't as moderate as most cranking sticks you could probably get away with using it for Carolina rigs, deep football jigs, heavy spinnerbaits, 10xds, swimbaits and a rigs 2 Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 10, 2015 Global Moderator Posted June 10, 2015 Sounds like a decent light swimbait rod. 1 Quote
kikstand454 Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Swimbaits. But honestly, it may make a d**n good punch rod. Quote
JGBassinAL Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Everyone is spot on. If it were me I would use it for 7" hollow bodies and a-rigs. Quote
