I only fished this once, thought handle was too long so sliced off 2". It has six guides and a wrap on tangle free tip. Handle is 24" to bottom of cork, with an abu 6500 its 22 1/4 to mid of spool. Great bait or light ditch rod. $120

Sorry, but I should have mentioned that I will not ship this rod and that I currently have transportation problems. Delivery in S.E. CT or Westerly/Charlestown area no problem.

Hi Brad:

Good chatting with you. I think the 8'6" st croix is a little on the soft side for your needs. I don't know if I mentioned, but I also built a 2pc 10' St. Croix and cut 6" or so off the tip when I was building it so it could handle larger plugs. That handles 2oz plugs with ease.

Let's stay in touch if you are interested.

Still available, black wraps over blue. I just don't through much over 2 1/2 oz. send pm if you want to ckeck it out.

What is the rod rated for?

blank is rated for 20-40 # and 1-6 oz

sorry about that, I should of asked what the sweet spot is.

sweet is probably 2-4, I built it and fished it for about an hour last fall. too much rod for me. I have other things on my shopping list, so take it away.

I'm keeping it, thanks to you guys who asked about it.
