Thanks DD and yes, you nailed it exactly! The Lamiglas XCC 1064 Kenai Kwik is my favorite downrigger rod.

To break down the model number, the prefix XCC indicates a graphite casting model while the suffix ( final two letters) "GH" lets you know you're getting a graphite handle (cork is too fragile for serious downrigger use) and the "106" lets you know it's a 10' 6" rod.

The final number is the rods "power" rating. I have a nice, light 1063 that is a sweet herring rod and a couple heavy 1066's that are bitchin' Buoy 10 diver stick!

Thanks for listening and good luck out there! See you on the water! thumbup

Nellie you dated yourself right there :lol: haven't heard the term "bitchin" in a long time. I was an actual surfer dude back in the sixties when that term originated to describe a great wave. I know I know you don't go back that far :o
