Hey. I bought the same rod a couple of weeks ago. I took it to Granby for macks and couldn't even feel the jig! I couldn't tell when the jig hit bottom. I ended up switching to a 34" Eagle Claw which worked a little better. The "Ice Blues" is going back to Wal-Mart. These rods are made of fiberglass. I am thinking of building my own graphite rod about 42" or 46", because I can't find one anywhere. Let me know if you find something.
