    Default I'm not really an Ozark guy...


    but I am starting to believe. I just haven't used the Ozark jig poles, I own, enough to really give any kind of review about them, even though they catch fish just fine. I have spooled up 2 Ozark casting rods in the last few weeks and if yard fishing has anything to do with the actual lake fishing, they are gonna be the bomb. I have put an Okuma spinning reel on one and a Daiwa on the other and they both cast further than any freshwater pole I've had in my hand. I even tried a little mock dock shooting and they seemed to work really well. We plan to give them a work out in the not too distant future.

    Is anyone else using these rods?

    I use ozark trolling rods and absolutely love them. I single pole with custom altered bnm rods. I did single pile one day with my wife's pink 10 footer and fell in love. When I fish the big D with Conway we rod fish right over the side. They are super strong.
