Todd what size rod have you been fishing with? Have you fished w itch any of the 7',8, or 9' rods? I have 3 of the 7's, 2 of the 8' jig and cork rods (haven't fished with the new 8 yet), 2 9's and a rear seat 10'6"

Are there any blanks available for sale? Especially in the 6/7 foot range.

My G Rods are as good a crappie rod that I've had in my hand.
One thing they need to add is a hook keeper. I have two also and love them. And I'll second Gamblinman on the hook keeper.

I have one , it is a nice rod. I also have several Pro Anglers, The G rod is a bit more stylish , but I can't tell it fishes any better than the PA's. I feel about it like the St Croix I bought a few years ago , nice rods , not enough to justify the $$$$ over a Pro Angler. Disclaimer , I am no expert and certainly receive no compensation from Pro Angler. MO

Just out of curiosity...anyone else besides myself that owns a G Rod ever fish with a TICA ROD?
I love my TICA RODS and in my opinion they look like a G Rod.
They are very Sensitive and have a great backbone.
I was just curious.
No disrespect to G Rod. I own 2 G Rods.
Thanks in Advance!

In regards to the hook keeper. I spoke with the owner when I picked my 7' up a couple months ago. I think I remember him saying all the new crappie rods have the hook keeper now. I was just about to tell him I thought the location of the keeper is perfect on the back side of the rod but he brought it up before I got it out of my mouth. I find this great because line does not accidentally catch when there is extra slack in the line. This man is very passionate about his product and I really enjoyed speaking with him. I will also be switching over to G-Rods.
