RE: Rod Suggestions
I just picked up one of the shimano convergence rods on the weekend. It 10' med rated 1/4-1oz lure weight and 8-17lb line. Nice feeling rod. Tried it out on the Grand throwing a heavy weighted pic rig just for fun. Nice being able to toss the rig out into some deeper water and the length of the rod helped to keep a nice line angle. The drawback was it made very short work of the small catfish that insisted on biting the hook. A light short rod gives a small fish the feeling of something much larger. This 10' just laughed at them. Given its length and power it was still quite sensitive as I felt the lightest of ticks.
Cheers.
