One of my favorite ways to fish is "Todd style" and have recently gotten into double dipping and dragging (but a little slower than Ranger.) I previously used Pro Angler rods for this but with everyone raving about the Huckabee rods I just had to have one. Since I hadn't handled them I was undecided between the 10' and the 11'. After reading lots I called Ken one morning and the Meat Draga was here the next day. Superb customer service! I haven't had a chance to use it yet as my wife just had surgery and I'm sticking close to home right now. I may give it a go tomorrow morning at Thunderbird. I did rig it up and take it out to the back yard and really like it. I can see another in my future as soon as I can afford it.
