Comments | 75 is actually 73 = between 41.5" and 45" dimensions but could be placed wherever the builder wants. This rod had permanent straight handle but could be made for off-set handle as well. A fairly slow action too slow for traditional (1940's and 50's) casting type reels but ok for spin cast or modern small reels such as Spidermite and light mono or spiderwire and 1/4-oz or smaller lures. Random measurements due to guides and ferrule. Normal guides for a 5-6.5' spinning rod from Cabelas 1-30 1-16 1-10 1-8 2-7 1-6's. |
