Mountainryan Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 Looking for another treble bait rod, I have an M1 which I love and an okuma sbx for heavier stuff. The okuma is very much fast action so better for jig hooks. Many non custom rods in the under 6oz class are rated fast. What are your favorite medium action or slower "fast" rods for these style of baits? Not looking for custom at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Ramen Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) 806 seems to be a consistent favorite for the treble baits. Depending on the size of the baits you plan to throw, you might also look at the 867. While it doesn't flex as deep as the 806, it has a really soft tip.

Bdawg2020 Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 If you want a true medium in the swimbait world the loomis 964 bbr is great but it becomes a noodle as you get above 2 ounces. It may be discontinued for all I know though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR Basser Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Loomis IMX 904, I picked one up from a member here and I plan on getting another. Perfect action for medium sized baits in the 2 oz rage, I use it for my tiny klash, dead or alive, and small wake baits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrx Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 Hey Ryan check out the Loomis IMX BBR 964 for smaller to Medium baits it's fast rated up to 6 oz but 2 - 4oz is perfect! I have it paired with a Calais ASV 20lb Tatsu! You won't be disappointed!! And for the little bigger baits the 965. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
