New Crankin Composite

[No_Sked]

If you haven't tried the new Graphite Composite Crankin stick you really should.! I've tried numerous crankin rods including the Mark Tyler series. This new stick by far is the best I've ever thrown. It's light, extremely sensitive, enough backbone and most important very forgiving action when you have a fish on.

Received my new Graphite Compsite rod middle of last week and gave it its first test today. I already have a Helium rod for throwing my grubs and Senko's so I new the quality of the rod will be top notch.

My only concern since I've always used pure glass rods in the past for my crankbaits and spinnerbaits is will it be soft enough for my liking. Well after another average day on the water I was able to land 5 smallies, 3 on a crankbait with my new rod. I was quite surprised in how soft it is. The action supposed to be fast but find more like mod-fast. This is the rod I've been looking for as throwing crankbaits all day on 5oz glass rods can get very tiresome. I've tried my ( - - blocked - - ) St. Croix Avid Crankbait rod while the build is topnotch doesn't have feel or action I was looking for.

My setup today was the 7ft Graphite Composite matched with a 5.1 Curado spooled with 10lb Pline Floroclear. Was going to try pure fluorocarbon but didn't know at the time how soft the new rod will feel.

2 thumbs up for the new Graphite Composite rod.

I can't say enough about the composite crank bait rods as with all kistlers they are extremely awesome! They have the perfect action for keeping those big buket mouths from pulling free on treble hooks! They are definately making a difference in my crank bait fishing if you don't have one you've got to try one!

No doubt about it, the new composite caranking sticks are the real deal. A soft tip for those long accurate casts with plenty of backbone to haul in the big ones. A must for even the occasional cranker.
