Yeah, the extra.
Just kidding. I really think it depends on the brand, and action of rod. I played around with the tips at my local bait shop, and thats what it depends on IMO. |

The difference between the actions are the percentage of the rod tip that flexes.It goes something like this.
extra fast-20% of the rod tip flexes Fast- 30 % of the rod tip flexes Medium fast-35% of the rod tip flexes Medium -mid part of the rod to tip flexes Slow- the whole damned thing flexes. I sure as hell hope this helps.  P N J

Maybe for all the 10 lb.ers that you catch lizards!
 I have never used an extra fast, but it really seems to vary by rod manufacturer as far a rod action. |
