OK here goes...
Lightest rod of all schoolie fishing...Lami GSH108-2H with a Suveran 400 and 10 or 12 lb mono. I made that rod.
lightest conventional....sabre 967 with an ABU 6500 C4. Mike T at www.capecodtackle.com made that rod.
All around plugging and eeling rod....Loomis 1266/2 with an ABU BG6500CL and 35 lb Cortland Spectron. George Hevey at Murats made that rod.
Canal jigging stick......Loomis 108-30 with an ABU BG7000CL with 50 LB Cortland Spectron. Mike T also made that rod.
Long casting heaver.....Breakaway 11 foot 9 inch with an ABU 6500CS Mag with 35 lb Cortland Spectron. Made by Wayne through Tres at www.hatterasoutfitters.com
Light beach casting rod..... Lami GSH 138-2MH with a Penn 850SS with 17 LB Berkley Xl. Made by Dave Hammock from Murats before he died.
Loaner rod....9 foot Ugly stick with a Penn 6500SS with 20 lb mono. You want to borrow one of my rods? Sure , use this one!
I am also currently building myself another Sabre 1089 which will have an ABU BG6500CL with 35 LB Cortland Spectron.
I am also building myself a 7 foot St Croix ultralight graphite conventional which will have a Morrum 6600 spooled with 20 lb Cortland Spectron. The hope is to be able to throw 1/2 OZ well with this set up.
I would also like a Breakaway 1265/2 like Fishpart has. Its the perfect rod for throwing bombers and tobimarus , etc. For some reason , its hard to get that blank anymore though.
And of course there's all the spares and backup stuff....
