Include me as one of the ACC fanboys. Lot of backbone for a sensitive crappie rod.

ACC for me, but want to try the todd huckabee rods.. after you get the 12 you will likely want a 14.. with the livescope, 12 even starts to feel too short , especially when the fish are very spooky , like they are now in alot of lakes.. I will likely go with a 3 piece 15 footer soon..

COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

I don’t have any input on a 12’ rod but an 11’ Jenko a Kevin Rogers is my everyday rod. In tournaments chasing fish on the scope I’m using an X 15 and wishing it was an 18’ rod. I rarely break the 15s out on trips cause most folks aren’t used to an 11’ rod much less a 15’. Go somewhere and stick a bunch of them in your hand and see what you like. There isn’t a best one. Just a best one for you!

I have a 12' ACC and a 12" Bonehead. I like the Bonehead more. It just feels better to me.

ACC is light and sensitive, I don't like it. The bonehead is a great rod. The find the fish 12ft rod is the perfect balance of the 2. The way it sits in your hand is perfect for a long day of fishing. Super light, but not worried about boat flipping nearly 3 pound fish in pretty shallow water, I wouldn't try that with the ACC at all.
