bassheel Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Which rod would you use for fishing 1/4, 3/16 jigs? Medium or medium heavy? Is it a personal preference or is one better than the other. Light cover and open water only. I was looking at the 6'10" medium for this application. Feedback would helpful thanks. I wanted to keep the rod over 6'6" and under 7'. All my rods are Shimano crucials. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted January 20, 2011 Super User Posted January 20, 2011 Personally would go with a MH, a little extra power for hooksets. Take a look at the Dobyns rods. Quote
SeanW Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 For that light of jig, Id go with medium. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 <1/2 oz I usually go with M/F spinning Quote
piscicidal Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 I agree...I've experimented quite a bit the past two years with various jig rods. I've settled on a 7' M/XF rod (All Star) for jigs less than 1/2oz. Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted January 20, 2011 Super User Posted January 20, 2011 I fish my light jigs with a 7 foot Medium Extra-Fast. It's a Dobyns 702C. It says it's a Fast on the website but it's more of a XF. Quote
