wanting to try another pole . I perfer cork handle, fast tip ,with plenty of backbone . I like the rear seat but not an absolute necessity . I have these and all have things I like with the b/m custom being my favorite . b/m = custom, buck's best ultralite with touch system and a brush cutter . I PERFER THE 11 ' models to jig the b/m prostaff in the 14 ft. is my slo- trolling pick . so many to try . the sam heaton rod does appeal to me just wonder about rods that are not b/m .
Try an Ozark

I've got 4 ozarks 2 rear seat 10s and 2 mid seat 12s. I really like them and compare well to the Sam heatons with a little stiffer tip and a little more mid pole back bone. Great heavy cover rods.
Coach the 11 and 12 foot ozarks are nice you would like them
I have the 11'er with the rear reel seat. It's nice. I used to use the Sam Heatons, but I like the rear reel better.

ozark !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like the sam heaton for jiggin. Really sensitive and I have found that with the rear seat I have a tendacy to hold the pole further up the handle. Hence less reach. JMO

For the next month I wont have nuttin but B&M poles and Bandit lures in my boat, would be a crying shame to catch ole Big Moma and not get all the prizes.:biggrin

nononoBandit dont make no gnats and aint seen no minners with Bandit stamped on em. Will be trying to drag the lips off some Bandits.

It is my lake and I know they will bite cranks as well, it aint about the statement it's about the other 500 bucks for first prize.:biggrin
I ain't sayin they don't like cranks, but I be willing to make wager that big momma comes off a big shiner.Quote:

You may be rite but you never know, Bandit throws in another 500 bucks if its caught on their bait. Thats the game I will play, B&M rods pulling Bandits lures and ifn I get lucky the pot will be 2500 instead of 1500.:ThumbsUp

I think it should be in the rules that Eagle should be allowed to spike both of your teas with pee for jacking his thread.
