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!
