I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with the Irod Air 7'10" heavy swimbait rod. Mainly how parabolic is it and what is the lure weight range where it shines.

I have one. It's more of a jig hook/weedless swimbaits type of rod for me personally. I like it for my Citizens and 8" Hudd ROF5. It's a little too stiff for trebles for my taste.

Do you throw the citizen 6 or 7 on it? Looking for a 6 rod

iRod Kaimana 794 is a great rod for Citizen 6 or BS6 and other smaller weedless baits like the Yunique Scout and G2 Trout. The only rod in the Air series I have is my punch rod, nice rod, very lightweight compared to other 7'6"+, heavy action rods.

I think it's on the lighter end of the spectrum with a 6" but can do especially if your reel is good and casts well.

As in the 6 is to light? Thanks for the response btw? Do you still like the rod?

I did sell it a few months back. My biggest knock on the rod was that it was light but til heavy for my taste. In addition I bought a rare MOAM custom stick that I really liked better, so one had to go.

My other Citizen 6 and 7 rod is a Raid Gladiator Undertaker.
