Hello! Thank you for your reply. Ok, the mag bass has a hard backbone and a relative soft tip? Maybe I can use them for twitchbaits, or is there another group better? I want to build the rod for castingreels. Jan

Hello, i have little problems to understand the different groups at Pacific Bay. Where is the difference between the Mag Bass and the spinning - groups? Where is the difference between the spinn and the spin-jig groups? Could somebody be so friendly, to explain me the difference between the groups (not necessary for fly and saltwater ;o) ).

Hi, not really simple to choose "the right one" ... I think the The LSJ783, 3C68MXF and the 3C70MHXF will come in the nearer range.

Hi, I am looking for a blank for dropshoting for walleyes. Here in Europe these guys get a little bigger than the american walleye. Witch blank should I use when I expect fishes (zander) between 3 and 6 Kg? The water I will fish is around 3 to 7 meters deep, no big drift, more stillwater. I want to fish lures like worms in 5 to 7 inch on 10 to 21 gram drop shot weights ... The blank should be
