R3ef Downrigger/Mooching Rod 9'
Great buy so far!

We bought these to replace the 9'-6" TDR rods we had been using, and wowee what a difference. Playing fish with these rods is a significantly better experience, and was definitely worth while. They look great, and the hard lower portion to the handle makes it really easy for my kids to remove from the rod holder without a challenge and get straight to fighting the fish. The 9' length is perfect to fish out of our 16' double eagle, and compared to 10'-6" rods makes for a better experience in the tight quarters. Definitely a good buy so far!

West Coast Fishing Tackle Hi-Vis HD Downrigger Combo
These were to replace one that was lost due to braid incident

These were to replace one that was lost due to braid incident. I like the thickness of these to lift the cannon ball up into the boat. The blue ones are too thin and harder to get a firm grip on
