Fishing Rods

i am looking for a rod that will be good for senko fishing. I will be using mainly for 5" senkos. What do you all recommend getting. Also this will be my first Kistler and hopefully not my last.

I would go with the HE70MC. I have 3 of them. They will load up nicely even with lighter baits than a 5" Seko(weightless with a 4/0 Sugoi hook). Some like the shorter rods but 7' is a great length(for me) for casting, moving the bait(from one side to the other, etc.), control of the bait, and leverage for settting the hook and fighting the Bass. I've caught several 4 and 5 lbers with mine and it's a 'hoot'!

Both the He69APC or He70MC would suit your needs (I have both). I use the He70MC for crankbaits because it has a slightly more moderate action than the He69APC. If you are looking for a solid all around performer, one you can use for senkos, spinnerbaits, etc., go with the He69APC.

I'll add another vote for the He69APC. I throw weightless 5" Senkos with this rod a lot and like the light tip for casting them out plus the backbone necessary for the good hookset.
