My favorite is a Fenwick Techna AV 7'9" Heavy but it's not made any longer.
I have theree of the Loomis GLX Flipping sticks that are leaning in a corner, broken in half. IMO, if you're going with the Loomis (which most of my rods are) go with the IMX. The GLX is too high modulus and will not stand up to close-up flipping for big fish in heavy cover.
For the money, I think Duckett's flipping stick is about as good as it gets.

As the bashing begins, I would not hesitate to buy another Carot Stik. Love mine with no complaints.
When in doubt, jerk.

Hey man, the original CS's were some fine rods. It wasn't until Boyd partnered with another guy that the materials/workmanship suffered terribly. Hence Duckett Rods today. If you have one of the originals, they're awesome...if you can stand to look at that orange blank all day.
