pinnacle rod review

[bassin is addicting]

i received the DHC5-681SPM it is a one-piece 6'8" med action, extra fast taper spinning rod with split grip cork handle.  it is labled "tube-grub"

at first look and feel i was very impressed...very light and the construction looks and feels great.  nice high quality guides and reel seat.

i have had the opportunity to use is 4 times in the past 10 days.  i am very impressed.  i paired it with a plueger president 6730 spooled with 8lb trilene xl for 2 trips and with a quantum kinetic pti10 spooled with 6lb yo-zuri ultrasoft.

both performed well.  except for tourney's, i fish from the bank and use very little weight or weightless soft plastics 75% of the time.  and have found a couple new holes to fish that are pretty overrun with vegetation.  i found the power of the rod to be on the stronger side of medium which i really liked.  i caught over 40 fish on the rod with more than a few being over 3 and 4lbs.  i like the light weight and ease of casting.  what i really liked was the quick action for the hookset.  i had no problem getting fish out of the salad..

overall i really like the rod and how it performed and would highly recommend it for the application i use.

What did you think about the sensitivity of the rod?  I think it is one of the best features of these rods.

the sesitivity is outstanding...

for example...there was a time that i was looking away from my line.... and a small dragonfly landed on the tip....i instantly looked back at my line...

i was impressed..

That is awesome, and what a benchmark! Hopefully those rods will make out to the Seattle area.
