perchpunk22 Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Has anybody used the Veritas Winch series? I'm looking to get the 7'6'' MH for deep cranks. Is a graphite crankbait rod like this worth it for deep diving? Quote
perchpunk22 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Posted April 4, 2012 Anybody? What's the best for a deep Cranker? I love the veritas but use a kvd crankbait rod for shallow cranks. I need something for deep cranks. Quote
Ima Bass Ninja Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 You are probably gonna get different opinions. Generally a composite rod such as the KVD series is thought of as having a better action. Its composite construction loads up slower than graphite allowing the fish to get the bait a little better. IMO it doesn't matter as much the material for construction of a rod (fiberglass or graphite) but the action of the rod. Personally i like a medium power moderate action rod and the one i currently use is graphite. The moderate action is gonna be a little slower than normal graphite rods and having more of the type of action of fiberglass. Having said all that i have caught fish on regular graphite rods so its mostly in personal preference. Quote
perchpunk22 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Posted April 4, 2012 Thank you! I was thinking that. Really a long as I get a good parabolic action out of the rod is what I care about. With the MH I'm thinking that and the stiffer graphite will help with good long casts. I guess I was looking for the encouragement. Quote
Skeet22 Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I have both the winch series Veritas and love them both. I use the 7'6" MH for throwing deep divers and traps in open water. You will not be dissapointed in that rod. Quote
bwell Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 I also have the Veritas Winch MH 7'6" rod and like it a lot. Its a very sensitive rod that I believe can do anything you want cranking wise with it, Quote
