bucketmouth64 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have a 6'6" Prodigy PDC665X-1 for my deep cranking rod. What's your opinion on this for deep crankbaits? It seems to be adequate for me, but I am not sure if I should get a softer one or go with glass. I have a slow reel for it already. I want to stay with 6'6" (my preference)and under $100.

RumRiverRat Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Now that I am using a Shimano Crucial for shallow cranks and a St Croix Mojo Bass Glass rod for Deep Cranks I am totally sold on the idea of using glass or glass/graphite in the case of the Crucial for cranks.Granted the Crucial is 7 foot and the St Croix is 7'8" and both are out of your price range.If you can find a glass rod for 100 bucks or less I would highly recommend it.I like longer rods, just a personal preference.

IBFishin2 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 The skeet Reese magnum cranker is pretty good for under 100$. At 7'10 it has some power too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 its going to be slightly more than your price point, but see if you can find a Compre TC4 cranking rod.should be just slightly over $100 bones.. Go with the MH if you find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go with the MH if you find it. I kinda figured you would recommend one like you did with the the other compre rod you recommened. I'll look into it.I saw a carrot stix at gm on sale. Opinions??
