It’s a plain fact that Slow Jerker set the standard. The water resistance factors are very big and there’s no way to indicate that.

Any rod model can do that, you can imagine. Let’s say you move a 300g jig at 3 meters deep. In reality, jig weigh is not the only factor that the rod works against for actions. You should not think this is specifically the jig weight you are supposed to use. But this is just a little indication of the action tone. The rod specs say which jig weight range the rod is the most suitable. That is the most frequent question people ask me. So a lot of anglers have Slow Jerkers for 100m and deeper range, but save some money with a cheaper rod for the shallow. So if you are just fishing in the shallow water, like 30m to 60m, you may not feel much difference. Good ones also work well with varieties of your tactics, from fast, punchy application to long, slow and soft application. Cheap ones find difficulties when the situation gets tough, like the strong current, multiple layers of currents, and deeper water. Good rods cover wide range of jig weights and water conditions. Finesse and awareness is the key factor in this game. But everyone wants to know what difference they make. The blanks is made of highly resilient, high carbon materials, and it takes craftsmanship to build such delicate, heavy duty productions at the consistent quality.Īll the slow pitch rods should have all the properties. But it’s really difficult to answer because it depends on what you expect but you don’t know what to expect when you are just starting this game. But I do understand the shipping fee is a big issue.Ī lot of people have sent me inquiries whether or not a certain rod works for them. I sell secondhand Slow Jerkers, and I can help you shop from Japanese retailers for 10% handling fee.
