acid wrap?
so a spiral wrap is an acid wrap huh?
i have never fished one, but I saw a couple last week--they are pretty cool
Just make sure whatever rod you choose you put on high quality guides.
I have built with sic and it is great, but I am not sure it is worth all of that dough. but, if you have the money to burn......get them.
IMHO---the key to jigging the canal effectively is your line and your terminal connections...you will find out soon enough if the rod is not beefy enough to handle what is on the end....
One tuesday morning at around 3:15 a.m. I had a fish put a substantial bend in the 1209. I held on as long as I could (about 40 seconds---but man it felt like 10 minutes!!!) and then my knot gave way.
What I learned from that exp is that you to have the absolute faith in all of your connections. I now tie all of my leaders ahead of time and as a wise ol' snickers eatin' cigarrette smokin' canal rat told me--"check them constantly". If I feel the slightest knick I will re tie a fresh one. Palomar knots all the way.
