Can anyone give the actual range on these? Looking to pick one up to leave in the dorm for mainly canal use but will use it wetsuiting as well. Mainly throwing 2-3.5 ounces in the canal and a bit less at times in the surf. Will the 3-6 do this or will the 2-4 work better? Thanks

3-6 for sure, especially if on the canal. that's the weight range i use and that is my go to canal rod. the little xtra backbone really helps with large in the current. i should be going there in a couple of weeks and would be glad to have you cast mine.

I'd love to cast one when your up here, let me know. Whats the low end lure range of the 3-6?

I have no expirience with 2 to 4 but the 3 to 6 will do what you want with heavy pencils and yet you can still use stuff in a lower range...sweet rod

I'm getting an S7 3-6 wrapped up as we type here its a cross between the two blank types. I talked to a few ppl who own the vt 3-6 and said they could throw stuff as light as the diawa minnow with considerable ease... that seemed slightly far fetched to me, but the point is that they throw stuff with underrated weight very well. you're more than welcome to try mine out when I get it.

i cast my 2oz mini blip with this rod, it goes a looooooong ways out there :). i'm painting and moving to new (to me) house over next 2 weeks. after that i'll be back to canal on reg. basis. if you can't wait come on up to ri and we'll take it to the local beach.

Sounds good. I'm up here at the Maritime Academy so canal works better, let me know

I'd be all over trying both of those sticks also. I'll bring donuts.

I own the 4 to 8 oz and wish I got the 3 to 6 but the builder told me it was a true 2 to 5, i will say even this rod will throw light stuff as well as my 1201 m but really comes to life around 3 oz I love it for jigging the canal and it has crazy power I played with the 2/4 and felt it was to light and more whippy. I never seen a 3 to 6 but would have to say after fishing mine and playing with the 2 to 4. I would say the 3 to 6 is your best bet.
