Hey Bruce, those were fun to use on our trip to Tofino last summer. It took a couple King runnin knuckle busts to get used to it though. Good down rigger rods for sure. I would think the give in the moderate action of the rod would bode well for mooching also. I don't know how limited they would be for weights though. I think they are weight rated as well as line test rated. ...

Are you still going to write up the story of that adventure for the mag?
