If I was fishing smaller streams with lots of over hanging trees and vegetation, the shorter rod would prove far more versatile
From: Brian: New Castle, IN 6/1/21 Comments: No doubt one of the best flat sided crank baits I've ever thrown
Penn made their 704, 705, 710 and 712 spinning reels using Worm Gears drive, Hardy of England took another shot at it with the 'Exalta MKI', obscure makers from Switzerland and Italy made several forgettable reels, until the next big thing came with Abu's Cardinal circa 1965 The Cardinal could only be described as brilliant
I havent tried any other types of fish yet, but my local Costco sells at least a few other varieties
The first thing about this rod that will stand out to most buyers is the price tag at under $500, the Cobalt provides excellent value
