Best Crankbait Rod

[Howie]

  OK... Looking for suggestions for a good, or even the best, crankbait rod.  Let the opinions begin...

  FYI, right now I am liking the St Croix Premier Glass Crankbait Rods, 7'M.

  Thanks in advance,

I don't know about the best but I have a 6.6 M Accadia rod that I am pretty happy with. Most people seem to perfer the 7 ft. though.

Skeet Reese Tessera..I have one paired up with a Revo SX and it is the best combo I have ever thrown a crankbait with. I was using a Quantum Energy PT cranking rod, and will pick up the Tessera over it any day. and @ $89.99, who can complain??

St Croix, Falcon, Daiwa are my prefferred. So, you are fishing one of ( if not ) the best. A 7 Ft medium is a good all around rod, but you may have to use something shorter/lighter if you are casting say 1/8th oz. baits. I have a Stupid thumb from time to time, so i have to vary my rod and reels for the situation. Good fishin!

Shimano Cumara Reaction Series or a Shimano Crucial TC4.

THE best crankbait rod on the planet right now is the Rapsody Fishing 7' Med/Heavy Moderate action rod.

the skeet reese rods are sick

skeet reese crankbait rod is my favorite that I've ever used for any kind of cranking.  can't wait till I can get the new skeet cranking stick.  they now have a 7'10" skeet reese cranking rod.

Without a doubt, the best crankbait rod for you is the one you like best!  Everyone has their own preferences, but you are the one that will be fishing with it.  I prefer Falcon Lowriders, but I don't have technique specific rods-decided I just didn't need them.  For me a treble hook bait goes on a M action rod.

I've learned you really don't need a real sensitive rod for cranks-I've never not known when a fish hits one-so while I want a quality rod I don't have to break the bank.

I guess it really depends on what your throwing...... deep crankbaits?  i don't have a recommendation for you, but lipless shallow runners, I haven't found a better rod yet than my E21 Carrot Stix 6'9" parabolic.....
