    J55, do you think the handles on your Airwaves would too long for use on the pier?

    Sorry, I haven't got back to you, waiting till I got a pic of the rod. Hope this helps. This is the 8' which I use on the pier, works great for me.

    Find a rod that meet your needs in regards to performance, quality, size, action and its build up (one or two peice, guides, handle, etc). Then paint it the shade of blue you like. No need to settle for powder or midnight when you're looking for electric.

    What sort of paint would you paint it with? Also, wouldn't you need to strip the guides off first and then put them back on?

    So I took J55's advice again. I went with a 7' Tsunami Airwave. Feels like it's just about perfect! I also couldn't help but grab a few extras from Tackle Direct. You know, because you've gotta spend $100 to get free shipping, and that always justifies extras! Thanks for the help and advice y'all!

    What size is that Spinfisher is that, and how's the balance,
    If you are going to fight, fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah's ark and brother, it's starting to rain!

    It's a 4500. It's exceptionally well balanced. I'll take a pic later after I get out of class.

    Here's the best pic I can get of the balance. I think either a 3500 or a 4500 would feel nice on it, but no bigger or smaller.



    J55, if it fishes as good as it feels, it will be a worth purchase indeed!
