Who has a 23 sul tickle stick
« on: Nov 23, 2018, 08:39 AM »
Wonder has used a 23 SUL
Tickle stick
Wonder if it's softer than a 27ul in the tip.
If you have one can you get width and tip thickness?

Don't know because I only have the 23" Super UL. Tip is soft with plenty of back bone. I've landing some big fish on it. 38" pike over 10lbs, several LM bass 15"-22" and buckets of jumbo perch,crappie,and bull gills. It puts fun back into fishing. Before that I was a St.Croix Legend man. There great too but the tickle stick never leave my right hand. Another advantage no don't need a spring bobber. And I was a spring man before. Even when their breathing on the jig,you'll see the hit.

Yes,  the 23 super ul.
You got a way to measure tip thickness and width at the very tip? Wonder how much softer it is compared to 27ul.
I have two 27ul. First round and second round, have this years one coming but might want 23sul?

Its about an 1/8 wide at the tip. As for thickness it's very thin,there's only about 4"of flat tip that really bends quick. The actual rod has way more back bone than one would expect from a little rod. Hope it helps.

Thanks. Wish I could get measure. A 1/8 is .125
The new 27 ul is .085 wide and .015 thick. But looks like better backbone, good even flex instead of tip (I hope) lol and very hard backbone.

You guys that have experience, do any of you have the 23UL and 27UL.  Looking to see if the 27" is stiffer than the 23".  I don't want to lose sensitivity.
My Setup:  Otter XL sled on a smitty.  10" Strikemaster Lithium 50 Volt auger.  Clam Bigfoot XL 2000 hub.  Garmin Striker 5 Ice Bundle.
