    Megabass Levante EMFT is my “go-to” for small to medium sized cranks; as well is a solid lipless rod
  • @Shawn_Lai
    Love the content as always. Just an idea, but with all the JDM rods y'all have, it would be nice to see the rods bent against a deflection wall under load. It would really show the rod actions and allow the viewer to visualize it. Just an idea!

    Valkyrie World Expedition 78H has been nice travel rod for those 14 to 20ft divers - DD22/6XD/CR16/G87 20A’s. Using 30lb braid to 15-20lb fluoro for saltwater bass. Feels a little softer and glassier than the Launcher.

    I know you hate ST Croix but they make some great rods for the price. I try and stick in the Victory and Legend Bass line usually. The Victory Power Target Cranker is a great DT10/ 3xd rod. The carbon cranker and is the same rod with higher quality components. Also you get a 15 year warranty so how can you beat that.
  • I have the megabass javelin destroyer. The model before the P5. I love that rod because it throws the deep 300 and the deep six with ease as a matter fact I tried the Blitz magnum and I didn’t think it would work very good but it actually worked really good. And I have the Valley Hill Odessa MMH rated 1/4 to 5/8 oz. that has glass in it and it’s really light. It’s a 6’6”and it’s great for smaller cranks!! Oh, the megabass Triza Sparna is good for smaller cranks. Really good. Thanks, the Up Tackle .
  • How about a follow up vid on cranking reels that pair with those rods?
  • @SamAndSamuel
    Gloomis 843CBR for those little guys. It’s money, and great for small poppers too like a Rico.
  • @af4od02
    The Megabass P5 Kasumi 6 11 was never in my thoughts for small cranks baits. Will have to try it out.
  • @mcdrmtt
    6’10 M glass is phenomenal at fishing a crank less than 1/2oz. Love to fish the IMA Bill Lowen square bill and pin jack 200. Also fishes the lighter stealth blade, z1, z2 or rock crawler like a charm.
  • I just bought the daiwa tatula elite 7ft cranking rod. I like it a lot, but have nothing to compare it to it's my first cranking rod. I mostly fish Flapslaps, 1/2 oz blitzs and Z2s. I have used it for moving topwater ploppers and was pleased with it.
  • I like to see you buy the dobyn’s champion crankbaits rods DC735CB -DC736CB -DC765CB these are glass rods to see what you really think about them they are only asking $249.99 that’s not bad for that price I been hearing lots of people say they love them that’s why I like to see if get them and try them out
  • Just bought the launcher and the combat stick a couple of days before this video. Excited to test them out on toledo
  • @treehunter1
    The biggest thing I look for now is the handle length in a crankbait rod. I’m still looking for a finesse to average squarebill rod with a longer than average handle.
  • I'm just a bank guy in a river system fishing for smallies. I wanted something that did lipless, 1/2 chatterbaits, squarebills and 3XD cranks. I ended up with a Levante Diablo Spec-R. It may not be the best choice, but it's a good choice of a wide variety. I was pleasantly surprised.
  • @darkstar2q9
    I also like the z crank elseil for those smaller ones
  • Thanks for the great video. I have been strongly considering getting the z crank elseil. I was surprised it wasn’t on the list. Will it handle z 3’s , tiny blitz, blitz dr ?
