bassheel Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Ive changed all of my rods to crucials except for the crankbait rod. Does does anybody have one? How does it perform? I will be using for most DT4s,6s, and other sallow to medium cranks. I own two Crankin' sticks 7'med amd med heavy but want to sell them to upgrade. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted March 3, 2008 Super User Posted March 3, 2008 I'm not familiar with Crucial rods by any means but if its not a glass rod or at very least, a composite rod, I wouldn't even consider it a crankbait rod.....and I'd keep looking. Quote
cdtac1 Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 I have one in a spinning configuration. They do have graphite but a different process called tx4 or something (I'd have to look at my rod again to get name correct) that makes it sensitive yet flexible. I not only use it for cranks, which I have caught many fish on, but even use it for small bottom bouncing baits a lot. I can feel as good with it as I can most my other jig/worm rods. Quote
Shadcranker Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 I have two of the Crucial CB rods. They are a different blank matrial than the other Crucials (TC4 blank which is parbolic action). I have the 7' M and 7'MH. I use the M action for 200, 300 Bandits and Rattletraps. the MH is reserved for Series 5, Norman DD14 and DD22's. For the Money they are a great rod. SC Quote
