luckycrank Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 any body own one ? just curious what your opinion is about a 7'2" ROD FOR SENKOS ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigums Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Im sure its a nice rod but I do not own one. Currently I use a 7' Medium St. Croix. I like the longer rod because I usually let the senko fall on slack like and the longer rod really helps pick up slack when setting the hook.

Deitz Dittrich Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I use my 7'2" cumara for senko type lures some. It works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckycrank Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 I AM ALSO THINKING OF CRUCIAL OR CUMARA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I own both the Crucial, and the Cumara. There is a difference in weight and I much prefer the Cumara, however, it carries a much heavier price tag. You cant go wrong with the Shimano warranty either. Not that G Loomis is a bad one. Actually Shimano owns G-Loomis. I have both the 7'2" M action and the 7'2" MH.. both are a great rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cecil Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 yeah, they have for a few years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptZ21 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Lucky,I own 3, have owned and used them for a few years now. My opinion is that they are the best rods for Senko fishing I have used. I have no trouble with braid or flouro with them having thrown up to 30# Fireline and 10# flouro. I also have used and liked them with small swim baits. The length is just right and I have no problem skipping senkos under docks. As for the strength my largest MN bass to date 6lb 9 oz came on that rod. As a disclaimer I am on Loomis pro staff but would same the same thing about the rod even if I wasnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
