Picked up a couple more rods

[Chas0218]

I found a couple rods I would give a shot. They are the Okuma GLT Copper/Leadcore with larger better quality guides. I am using them as my dipsy rods instead of the 10'ers. The shorter 8'6" rod is easier to handle on my boat than the 10'ers. They seem to be stiff enough compared to my downrigger GLT rods which had a tough time releasing the dipsy.

Anyone else use these rods?

Yes. I bought one online and then found them at Narby's in Oak Orchard for less than the online price.

I changed the tips to twili tips and they are now my favorite dipsy and copper rods. I know that they are not very high end,but what they give me for less than $30 a piece is a lot of fishing rod per dollar paid

I used them this weekend and they worked out awesome! Nice and stiff to release the dipsys and could easily horse in some big fish if need be.
