Ditch Jigger Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 i cant remember what models were raffled off at mikes at the spring troll fest. i think they were 2 different actions, correct? im gona get a lowrider setup for my new stella 10000sw and im not sure how they are rated this will be a pluggin/jiggin stickplug weight 2-5oz jig weight 2-7oz The two raffled off at the DT gathering were the same--the HJ 1327 blank rated 2-5. The name of the blank has been changed to "Slingshot", I've heard. The heavier one rated 4-7 wasn't in yet the last time I was in there, 3 weeks ago. They may be in by now.

striperburke Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Jae, I was in CMS over the weekend and asked if they had any Century Rods. They only had one built a 1327 I believe with low riders and it was 4 bills. I gave it a shake/wiggle and they feel real nice, very light rod for an 11 footer. I would really like to throw one to compare it to my 2-6 oz mojo. Good luck in your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 that one might be added to the collection, but i may have em adjust it for me cause i have short arms and reel placement is important with lowriders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vern Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 I have a factory 1327.The reel seat seems a little short for me ,I wish it were a little longer.I really like the feel of the 10' stealth but again,reel seems just too short.I f it were not for that I think I would have bought it already.The 1327 threw jigs to 4 oz the other night at the canal and fished them very well.

Tagger Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 i got the 3-7 factory for the canal for the occasional heavy weight shad (6.25 ounce).. Amazingly it throws a diawa sp minnow very well ,, I even threw a 14g maria jigg with it .. Great canal rod ... I tried the 1-5 too , I'd prefer that if I was just throwing plugs and plan on picking one up for the beach .

pmbrac Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 The 1327 makes for a nice eel stick also. I've been using mine this week for eels and occasional jigging (3oz) with good results. And it obviously throws plugs real nice. Looking at the 1328 for heavier stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tagger Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I have no idea what model I bought ??? I was just told by Mike it's the heavy one 3-7 ..

Nothing ??? the 3-7oz you bought should be the 1328.. the 2-5 I bought i the 1327.. your right, these rods have no way to identify them,,,, except that its a century Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
