Is there a big difference between the Bullwhip and PN when using say a 1/16oz tungsten jig?Is the tip that much softer on the PN?
Tuned up customs precision noodle or DH al dente?I have a TUCR bullwhip that I love but for lighter bites I've been using a St-Croix Legend black with a springs bobber (actually works amazing) but would love to try another rod.I use a lot of 1/32 and 1/16 tungsten jigs.What rod would be best for these weights?
If you already love the Bullwhip, the Precision Noodle would be a great next purchase. As a matter of fact, it was for me. Then I got a second PN. Those are my main two rods, a BW and a PN.
Is there a big difference between the Bullwhip and PN when using say a 1/16oz tungsten jig?Is the tip that much softer on the PN?There is a place locally where I can pick one up tomorrow but its about a hour drive, I'm really digging the white version also
So I purchased the PN and got home and compared my Bullwhip to it and what I found weird was my Bullwhip has a softer tip then the PN???It was a beautiful rod but I ended up returning it for that reason...
Curious what size PN did you purchase? I wonder if it's deceptive being that the bullwhip has a soft tip that transitions into a stout back where as the PN has a softer transition. When it comes down to tying on the lightest baits I think that's where you'll see the difference. That's odd though b/c I thought the they both have almost similar tips but not quite.
surprised no one mentioned teh pannie droprhttps://www.dhcustomrods.com/product-page/pannie-drop-r-hybrid-noodle-1
got tired of the bass always coming unbuttoned when using a light rod. Needed more stick to get the hook to stick in their boney faces.
I cloned this setup and it has been absolutely lethal the past 3yrs. It is the setup i use for 90% of my panfishing with a 4mm tungsten. Love it! BTW i have built and fished many, many different noodle rods and there is not one that compares to a spring on the tip. Just that simple.
