lol!!

My bait monkey is tapping harder and harder on other people shoulders ain't he! Ahhh! The lust of the bait monkey!

Tell if you get one, or at least if wally carries them. And if you don't like, I'll be glade to take if off your hands!

Good luck and good fishin'

I fished a fluke on one this weekend, they have more backbone than I thought, but it gets the hook in them, it's light and you can mess up there day with the hookset

Thanks! would it make a good swimbait rod due to the light weight and back bone if I got a 7'6" one? the rod I have now is just a pain to fish a long day with, it pretty heavy! The reels also a little but on the heavy side, but not that bad! My dad's gt the same reel different rod.... much lighter!

btw, how long is the rod handle from the reel seat to the butt?

Thanks again!
