BC75MLR Infos needed
February 26, 2013, 04:40:15 PM
I considering this rod for 40-60g stickbait and popper for small GT and sailfish in Msia. Will be matching a 6k HG pe3 line.
Anyone tried this rod?

The rod would be perfect for small GTs, the tip might be a little too soft for sailfishes though as you need to set the hook pretty hard.

I would recommend another rod.

the MC works Dazzler
DZ 802LF
Length 8'00" PE#2-3 Cast 20-50g Drag Max 4kg

cast a mile but with as above, with too soft a tip for sailfishes.

I would agree to that but if carpenter is your brand to go might want to try a 75MR.
You just can't get a Dazzler anywhere except in Japan....my friend got this wonderful rod but unfortunately just sold recently!!

Absolute best of rod of its type I have ever used (although I have the more or less identical older BC73 MLR version).

This and Yamaga Blanks Blue Sniper 77/3 are the two rods I use for the type of applications you mention James.

Both match beautifully with 5000 size reel and PE3 or PE2.
