I get the impression that you are comparing a glass moderate action to a carbon fiber fast action? Right now I can't tell much difference from my carbon fiber moderate and my glass moderate. Trying to learn more. But wanting to make sure there is a significant difference between carbon and glass…when they are both moderate action.
great info!
You have great products. As I have said before, it's all I have in my BassCat.
Really wish you guys would make a 7'2" S-Glass chatterbait rod…maybe it's time to email about a Custom Shop project.
What rod in your lineup would you recommend for 1/2oz (occasional 3/4oz) lipless cranks? I prefer something between 7'3" – 7'6". Typically open water with some sparse grass.
I own two hustler rods and I love em’ ! Not just for crank baits either. I throw a bladed jig too and the vibration you get in the rod tip is just amazing. And with the glass rod it really does allow the bass to just inhale the lure. Great stuff Alex. Love the info on the ALX rods.
IKOS Hustler is by far my favorite ALX rod. That rod does EVERYTHING well for me.
The next one needs to be about wacky rods
