Just not sure I want to throw a deep crank this much, it’s hell on my wrist and hand. (Yes, I am a wimp)

(Yes, I am a wimp) I have a “one” 04 7’10” and it is my go to c-rig rod but can be used for all kinds of techniques. Last I talked to Judy, she recommended the “one” 03 7’10” for 10XD. I use the old SB4 and 04 7’10” when I throw a 10XD which isn’t that often. I throw the 8Xd much more often.

You have the carbon fiber or Eva grips? I’m a little bit surprised nobody has mentioned the Lews xd crankers that BPS has and very few mentions for Falcon.

I have the older models in the PG104, 104.5 and a couple of 145's I think they are (great for light weight baits and the drop shot) Also have 2 Power Tackle spinning rods.
