PRED-ATOR Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 hey guys, anyone used the wilson venom jigging stick? from all the youtube videos these things look animal but i have never seen anyone use or own one in the flesh, nor do i see them stocked anywhere. Any info on how they perform would be awesome. Anything that can deadlift 40kg would be a broomstick i would assume? Cheers, Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had heaps of grunt and didn't need to much force applied to start to load up but was too heavy for my liking. Was pretty good value if you were after a jig rod in that range.

I have a suggestion, If you are going after doggies you better pay for a rod that will stop them as any inferior tackle will result in dissapointment and even then you need a little luck with these denizens of the deep. 100 lb braid needs all the rod you can afford.

framedtrash Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 All comes down to your budget and how much your willing to spend on a rod that you prob wont use all that often unless you do abit of traveling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironfist26 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 daiwa demon blood. My mate has one for his Stella 20,000. When he bends it over and loads it up on the couch it pushes the couch along the ground. Such a strong, amazing rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRED-ATOR Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 Honestly i dont want to spend too much. And the demon blood is made on the same blank as saltiga's so if there not going to be up to it maybe the demon bloods wont either. That being said there an awesome rod though : ) I really dont want to spend too much becuase theres not really that much in sydney i will be able to use it on so only when travelling. I thought the wilson venom would have been ok especially for the price. I dont want to spend more than $600, i know thats a big ask but yeh. What about the samaki jig pro? or the jig master? Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisho_260 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 hi mate, i have both the 250 and 350 venom rods in the spin models and they are absolute weapons. After using one on a charter about 6 months ago side by side with some other well known jig rods there was no comparison. jigged comfortably for longer and for the amount of effort i exerted it transferred heaps to the fish really putting the brakes on them whilst others on the boat were being dragged about doing it tough. worth well over the 400 odd bucks they cost imo.
