Thread: pushing cranks

I will probably still use my PSTs for pulling cranks they have served me well...I do want to get a set of the new Pow R Trollers in 14 ft. tho to push crankbaits with using 3 oz. weights.

They are nice! My PST's really load up with a 1/8oz jig, 2 to 3oz sinker with 1/4 jig on bottom. These have about 3 to 4 inches of orange on tips that you can't see in the picture. They didn't load up much at all with the 3 oz weight and 300 bandit but when a fish hit you didn't have a problem seeing the strike. They were heavier than my PST's but not an apples to apples comparison because these were 18' verses my PST's at 16'. They are lighter than the competitors rods. I liked the metal collar that secures them in the holder, I thought that was a nice addition.
