Aluma-Bass Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 wondering what size rod and what action is recomended for flippin/pitchin? Gonna be on the look out for a new rod soon and wanted to know what works best for this style of fishin. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 If you will be using it for both flippin/pitchin the size depends on how tall you are. I am 6' 2" so a 7' 6" rod works well for both techniques for me. You want the strongest rod you can find that is still very sensitive with a semi soft tip to detect strikes. I have tried flippin sticks from Shimano to Daiwa before i finally found the perfect one for me. It is a 7' 6" Powell Max 766H. This thing is an absolute brute yet extremely light and ultra sensitive. At $169.00 with all Fuji components and EXTRA sensitivity, it was perfect for me. BEST OF LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
