Anyone use bent butts for stand up. Some Talica combos have a status bent butt . Feel nice and light , just wondering how the action is compared to a straight butt. Cheers

Once you have had your butt bent you will never want to go straight again, or so they tell me at least

Haha nice one tagit. Sposman it depends what kind of fishing or fish you want to be targeting....... if you are trolling straight is the way to go, if your fighting or targeting deep fish then the bent butt would be a better option

Once you are used to fishing fish with a bent butt they are much nicer to use in my opinion.
