Would Not Have Dicks Ship This Item.

Decent lower priced rod but arrived completely obliterated on my first order. The shipper stuck it in box that was a foot too short, so the tip area of the rod was literally sticking out the box and had plastic shipping bag wrapped around it! The guides we all bent and the rod was useless! I’ve seen similar comments on other rod reviews.

Dark Matter Jig & Bounce Baitcaster.

I have always wanted to a John Skinner Jig & bounce pole. I first noticed how extremely light this pole is. And its totatlly different from other jigging poles I have felt and owned. I am glad I purchased and Dicks shipping is extraordinary!! Blink of an eye its there. Great purchase and very satisfying shipping. Next I would like to see all the possibilities in a baitcaster reel.

Great Rod!

Excellent rod for fluke and blackfish just the right action

Thought This Would Make A Good Ocean Fluke Stick.....

I bought this rod back in April for a June annual trip to the Nantucket Shoals. We use heavy lead to fish fluke at 100' or better there. I did not love this stick for fluke. On a whim, I gave it as shot locally on Long Island for jigging stripers with flutter spoons. I will say hands down this is an awesome rod for that use. Plenty of action in the rod. It bends perfect for fighting big stripers. I paired this with a 5.3 Avet reel (not sold at Dicks) and it performed great. For me it is not a good fluke rod, but really like it for bigger fishing and active jigging.
