 |
|
So I bought the 50w and in searching for a blank I think I have decided on either a 9-10' jawbone or the 10' 80 to 130# gator. I am specifically asking if anyone has tried both with a similar sized reel and what their thoughts were on how they compare against each other. What the action is like etc. Thanks in advance for any input!

Jawbone seems to be the general consensus! Do you like a 1053 or 1054 better for a 50w?

| I have had a jawbone hammer on my 50 for a few years and like the action. I really never thought it had that much play in it until I hooked into some good sharks. Then that sucker will double over. I didn't know they made a 1054. Good to know. |
