Curious which one you recommended... looks to be some iPhone/Tapatalk formatting issues. Did you recommend the Aji-Do 1G-class or the Aji-Do 5G?Quote:

They are very similar in weight, feel and action, at least to me. It was my second purchase and sees a lot of fishing time as well.Quote:

Alphahawk something weird happened to your reply, I can’t make it out.

These type of posts are no good to my wallet .
I learned of reasonably priced rods that I didn’t know existed and even though I shouldn’t have even looked them up , I did ,read the reviews , checked out the specs , and ordered another rod .
One I don’t need , but the Palms Pinwheel caught my eye.
I ordered the 5’6” UL.
Greenwing, other than what I’ve posted previously, I can’t really make a recommendation.
Being a bank fisherman mostly my rods fit the conditions of where I fish that particular day, whether it be an open dock , or a tree lined creek .
I’m also a micro jig fisherman most of the time . 1g or less .
Fishing tackle is my addiction and I have accumulated several pieces of equipment along my journey.
But I think what may work for one person may not work for another .
Good luck on your choice .
If it doesn’t work out , there’s a lot out there to try . :)
Thanks for all the suggestions, I ordered this rod last night from Digitaka.
Major Craft Ajido AD5-S682L/AJI (Spinning 2 piece）
I love this rod, it's very lightweight and sensitive but has plenty of backbone to pull large crappie out of cover. I have the rod paired with a Shimano Ultegra and it cast a 1/16 hair jig great. I have the combo a good workout today, caught several nice crappie, a couple of bass, 3-4 lb catfish and several 14-16" white bass today.
Glad you’re happy with your new rod .
Major Craft makes a nice rod .
I haven’t had one that I was disappointed in .
