Scotty I have a Abu 6500C trophy on the rod w/40lb power pro. Conventional of course. I can easily use a 1 oz lure and have thrown as high as 3 1/2 oz. stuff in the ditch. Sweet spot seems to be 1 1/2 to 2 1/2. Handled right I can get excellent distance - 300 feet with 2 ounces easily. Actually did so on a measured field.
As a footnote, I put a Abu 7000 pro rocket on that stick just today and it handled it just fine. A little too much reel for my liking though.
Karl - ya hit it right on the head. Don likes the Allstar blanks
