Nice pole for sure. I am thinking of one myself.
Best one i ever had about to get the new one
Dont have the new one with rear seat but I have 2 of the regular ones and in my opinion they are the best jig pole on the market. I have one that is at least 6 yrs old.

Buffalo13 on the Kentucky board swears by them. Landed this big kitty with a Sam Heaton and 6 pound line.
Sounds like it is a hit. Never picked one up. I have got a Russ bailey wizard I have used for 3 years. I am assuming the Sam Heaton will be lighter. I am headed to Southaven In the morning to eye doctor and I'm going to try to get my hands on one and check it out.

Think Sportsmans Warehouse there in Southaven has some but don't remember if they had a rear seat. Good to checkem out but wouldn't buy there.
I do know for sure grizzly jig com. Has them
Hope you like using a net... Had one yrs ago, it is an awesome rod.. After fishing 'Butla with a buddy I saw the light
I have heard alot of people brag about Ozark rods. How do they compare?
My son wanted the difference pole from BnM for his birthday for jigging and casting since it has spinning eyes. Ordered it and it came in Friday. We went and tried it out yesterday afternoon and caught a couple. It felt much better then my wizard it made me want a newer lighter pole.

I love Sam heatons, but me personally... rear seat is not for the man that jigs stumps and timber. Just can't stretch out when you need to with them. My 2 cents
How much are the ones with the rear seat goin for?Quote:

The rear reel seat model seems to have better balance to me, and the Ozark has the titanium tip making it very sensitive.
Bottom line is that I like both of these rods. Wish I had a rear reel seat Heaton to compare the Ozark to.

Jigging is what I like about the rear seat . .When the bite is light I put the line between fingers . Would say the touch opening is of little value ,but I like the 11 ft. and love the 12 ft .Quote:

sweetest pole I have ever used way beyond sensitiveQuote:

I Think y'all have sold me on getting this pole. Went by Sportsman Warehouse while I was in Southaven yesterday to get my hands on one but they didn't have one. Think I will just go ahead and order one and take my chances on liking it. Thanks for y'all's input.
