Bassfisherman94 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 How many of you have a Quantum rod designated for flipping and pitching? I'm looking to get one and would like to know the right length to get. thanks! Quote
Rich Tehan Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Proper length all depends on the person and application. I am 6'4 and I like a 7'6" rod for most flippin, sometimes 7', but other people use 8'. If you aren't very tall though, 8' would be very awkward for you. Quote
westpalmfrogpunk Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 I have used the klien 8 foot flipping stick and enjoyed it. Had plenty of power to pull fish out of cover. I really would like to try the hockey rod. I think his idea of action fits modern line and hooks Quote

I really would like to try the hockey rod. I think his idea of action fits modern line and hooks thats one stiff rod ;D ;D ;D Quote
1inStripes Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 I dont know about the Hockey rod, but I have considered purchasing one of the Hackney rods when I purchase a new flippin stick. Quote
TourPT Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 I use the Tour Edition, I believe its the 7'4" heavy and like it allot, however Quantum seems to have downgraded the standard Tours this year. If I am not mistaken though I think they make that same model in the new Smoke Rods. Quote
westpalmfrogpunk Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Sorry folks auto correct on my phone changed hackney to hockey. But yeah that may be the next rod added to my arsenal Quote
hunt4 Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 I use the 7'6 Biffle for flipping and pitching. It's a beast Quote
basser89 Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 I have a Quantum Energy that I used for flipping and pitching. Mine is the 7'6" H. I haven't had the opportunity to check out Hackney flipping stick but my bet would be you wouldn't be disappointed with it. Quote
