tomkat Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 What are your thoughts on the ultimate kawartha muskie rod for all day casting of smaller bucktails crank baits and spinner baits? I want to find the lightest rod possible maybe its not a muskie rod at all but a heavy bass rod? Just looking for some input. My st croix premier musky rods feel like hockey sticks by the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeontroller Posted May 13, 2007 Report Share Posted May 13, 2007 If the St Croix Premier's are too heavy try a St Croix Avid, about half the weight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Trophymuskie Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 You need to get yourself a G-Loomis Mur915CX I believe, it's the lightest and best rod out there but you will pay the price. It's a 7'7" bucktail rod. A more affordable option would be the MUR965C I think, it's a 6"5" medium action bucktail rod that you can cast all day long with.

irishfield Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 MU915 7'7” 1pc 25-50lb line 1-4 FAST MED-HVY is the blank I had Spiel make me a custom bucktail rod from last spring. Everyone that took turns playin with it at Lakair was amazed at it's lightness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeking54 Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Check out Cortland CTR Muskie rods. I own a 6'6" and would definately buy another. Not too expensive and very light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
