Title: Bob O and I on StClair....
Post by: 21XDC on September 06, 2015, 09:39:34 PM
Bob caught 30 lbs first thing in the morning... I tried to catch up, But never quite did.  The custom dropshot rods Bob built us worked great. I really liked how it performed. He is building 2 more for us in the next lower power that I think will be even better.  Thanks Bob.

I'm having Bob make my next one without them. I like the looks of the grips, But I don't hold them and it only adds weight and cost to me.

Rainshadow Revelation 7ft 2in ML 6-12 lb fast blank... Micro Wave guide set. Super comfortable Aero handle, and I can feel everything like crazy. I just ordered 2 more of the same exact blanks in the L power 4-10lb test rating. Bob is making two more for us. The 6-12 lb blanks were a touch stiffer than what I wanted. These next couple might be the best for me.
