Can anyone tell me what the specs are for the 8' ACC crappie rod? Looking for line weight, lure weight, action, power and weight. Thanks.

I just asked Andy.

He says he never put much thought into that stuff.

He was a Full Time Crappie Guide.

I use 20# Power Pro Super Slick with an 8# Fluorocarbon Leader.

I fish with no less than two 1/8 ounce or 1/16th ounce Crappie Jigs.

I sometimes fish with 5-6 jigs at a time.

I wish I could answer your questions better.

His next shipment is gonna be Spring and all I can do is recommend trying one when they come in.

I'm extremely happy with my ACC Rods.

In the mean time if you need an 8 Footer try Pro Angler.

Tight Lines!

As Hogon stated about Andy. I never really pay much attention to a particular manufacturers specs. Mainly because there is no set standard and "specs" vary from mfg to mfg. What is a med lt from one might be a light in another or med from another. I really learned this in the golf business with graphite shafted clubs after putting them on a frequency analyzer. I could take a club labeled as "regular" from one company and it would frequency out as a "senior" flex while one from another might frequency out as a "stiff". Again, there are no set standards within the industry. Before all the custom fitting finally caught on I tested numerous sets of off the rack clubs that would range from "senior" to "stiff" within the set. Many times when I did a fitting I would ask the individual what club he hit the best amongst their mid irons. I would take that club and test it to find out what frequency range it was in and that would give me a great starting point with regards to what flex they would need.
