The pro series ,your talking about the white rod that's medium light action.If you are in think I'm gonna order one to try thanks

Roy, Is there a real difference in the actions of the Pro and Speed Shooter rods? One shows M and the other shows F.

The actions on both are the same to me. They are both med light with fast tip. Speedshooter have wave guides and foam handle while pro had traditional guides and cork handle

What size reel matches well with them?

Wally Marshall SpeedShooter in 7' has been good for me

I figure I'll be trying the pro series. I just can't get around that blue/green color combo even though that says nothing about the rod's performance, lol. Guess I'm just old fashioned.

I ordered a 5'5" for docks and it arrived with the carton damaged.
When i opened it the very tip was broken off where the rod joins the tip.
I called and was told to send a few pictures by email, but meanwhile they would send another rod and a new tip for the other which i could also keep. The rod and tip arrived before i sent the email.

I have the Proangler 6.6 and it does a great job. I do not want to highjack thread but to be honest Proangler rods are all I have. 10 footers and 12 footers for spider rigging and the 8 footers are excellent for long lining out the back. they are just great folks to work with
