I have on 7'3" under a Revo S. I'm using as a jig rod and I like it just fine so far. I've only had it for a month or so and have caught 1-2 fish total. I am kind of a newb and couldn't really tell you anything too specific. I'm using braid on the reel, so the feel is really good--I can't necessarily attribute that to the rod, but I am happy with it so far. I spent about 100 bucks on it.

It's really light, great guides, and good feel.

They are, however, mega stiff...like almost 2 whole actions off for the M, and the MH is a stout heavy.

Good bottom contact rods, but not a rod in the lineup ideal for moving baits.

they arnt "heavy" just "stiffer" than say a loomis medium. these are about half a flex stiffer per action. . they make great t rig and jig rods, prolly not too good of a searchbait rod

They are a very stiff and sensitive rod.
I bought my son one,it is a broom stick.


One you build and fish with your own hand built custom rod you will fish with nothing else!

i was looking to get a couple 1 for jigs and worms. 1 for chatterbaits , i might get a medium for chat. i only fish fork so maybe a medium heavy would be ok for spinner & chatts?

I broke the reel seat on a hook set, returned it to BPS and broke it again on first hook set. Using a Quantum Accurist. I was surprised as have never had that happen.

Interesting information. I was seriously thinking of buying one of these, but I think I will just stick with the Falcon Bucoo. I know I like those for sure.

I just bought 7'3" MH and noticed when I put on my BPS RCX reel it was difficult to tighten down because of the limited access to that area......I finally tightened it with a wrench....Now ya got me worried about the reel seat breaking?

i bought a couple last week, the 7'4" MH, bought to throw 1 ounce spinnerbait and throw rig on, little too fast to throw big blade so I used it to throw a trap this weekend, proabably caught 20 fish on it, up to heavy 4, on trap and c rig, no issues. really like it for dragging, love the handle, wanted the next more expensive model but BPS doesn't carry.

I have the 7'h ans a 7'm. Bought them when they first came out and have had zero problems. The 7'h has gotten most of the work for fishing jigs. I like them and got three more on the way.

Were having trouble getting those in the stores. I can always try to order you one from the distribution center. Just go back to the fishing department and ask for a lead. We would be happy to help any way we can.

The other rods I have are the flacon buccos they are not as stiff with more action for better casting.
Put one of each in your hand and compare.
