st croix eyecon walleye casting rod Trolling Rods Constructed with newly engineered SCII carbon fiber James Lindner is talking about

A stiffer lower section from the reel seat area that folds away at around two thirds up the length of the rod is ideal

The Marksman was definitely thicker and could possibly have gotten a 8.8, but was still smaller than the even thicker Fenwick Aetos grip, which we scored an 8.5

For ultralight fishing around docks and shallow cover, a 1000 reel works extremely well

The BlackPac also has a lid that closes and latches shut, and is easily accessible to retrieve any needed tackle or gear

Maybe Im stubborn, but I cant picture using anything else, despite the obvious fact that a sealed spinning reel is the right choice when standing in the water amongst the boulders fishing a night tide
