The lightweight jerkbait rod build begins. For a UBer who shall remain nameless. Or not.

Nice. Sounds like someone among us is about to be getting their "jerk-jerk-pause" on. Post some pics when you get it completed.

I sure like my FDx Spinning Jerkbait rod that I had made a while back. Works like a charm and I can throw pretty much every weight I want other the heavy or deep diving stuff...
