Mono on cranks do you not use fiberglass?

Good question ... today's graphite selection provides parabolic selections that don't wear you out like heaving and holding a heavy fiberglass rod will. Ask our resident crank bait king Alex ... it's a bear trying to crank a DD-22 all day on a fiberglass stick.

My choice for cranking is the Denali Kovert series ... I use the 7-2 medium power, moderate action for Wiggle Warts and other midsize cranks and the 7-6 medium heavy power, moderate/fast action for bigger crank baits. The moderate actions of both rods allow the rod to bend from tip to butt ... a parabolic action. They give quite a bit when a fish strikes and also during the fight, helping keep the fish buttoned up on those pesky treble hooks.
