    I love the old Tennessee handle rods. I had eight of them from St Croix until someone stole them. The balance in your hands is great. Very sensitive.

    People cant get over the mindset of the simplicity of the Tennessee grip.
    I have fished the "ghetto black electrical tape setup " on my spinning rods since the 80s and there is no substitute for the comfort and simplicity of the setup.
    Some people are so worried about being made fun of by another angler on the boat it seems.
    My boat deck wears 2 of drews rods 2 charliebrewer rods and a vintage kunan all with Tennessee grips and electrical tape.
    The fun starts when you start pulling the fish in while mr fancy rod is in the back of the boat with his shiny real seat wonder getting smoked
    More than one local youngster I have taken fishing has seen and made fun of my ghetto rods only to regret it after netting some of my big fish.
    This rod is starting to become a favorite to the other Tennessee rods I have it's unbelievably sensitive and so darn lite with a 2000 tatula reel.
    The other day I "accidentally "caught an 11 pound walleye on a 1/8 oz. Jig and 8 pound p line what a battle but the rod did its job like a champ.

    Drew's 100 percent right. Putting reel directly to the rod makes it very sensitive. That is a great rod and would be great for crappie. I do wish they offered them a little longer. He knows what he's talking about.

      I don't understand. It's directly to the CORK. Pretty much all of my finesse rods seat directly to the BLANK, which has always been sold to me as the ultimate in sensitivity. How does seating to cork add to it?

    Here’s a little tip for this rod. Don’t use black electrical tape. It leaves a nasty mess behind. Any of the other colors won’t do that on ya.

    I think that drew knows what he’s talking about. The man has been fishing almost his whole life. I don’t mind that there’s no reel seat, as I think the electrical tape to hold the reel on is bad ass. Fish on.

    Thanks, Drew. I wish you talked more about the rod blank, but I suppose that will be mentioned on the Z-Man site. I am considering getting one.
    40 plus years ago, I had a Billy Westmorland Lite Line Special rod, which was in the Bass Pro Shops line. It got stolen. It was only fiberglass, cost around $29.95, and 5 feet or a little longer. It featured the Tennessee handle, but did come with 2 rings to help secure the reel. The cork grip was a little different from other grips, in that it had a slightly larger diameter. For those people with larger hands this increased diameter is very welcome, much like the trademarked Power Hump handle found on some Bass Pro Shops rods.

    Well, BnM Crappie poles makes one , or did make one ,if they haven't discontinued it !! They called theirs with no reel seat, a TENNESSEE HANDLE . It did have 2 Brass Rings around the Full Cork Handle to put over each side of the reel T , but you still needed to tape it down to secure it on the rod handle !!

    Love your product very sensitive ..l love a good Tennessee handle rod.and being older l admire your still plugging the lake but let's come clean here you stopped a little short in mentioning charlie brewer the real father of finesse fishing and the inventor of the Tennessee handle spinning short rod technique.
    You were alive and well in the 80s for the do nothing Era.
    You mentioned there were no short rods available .
    Charlie brewer has been selling them for years.
    Sorry not trying to be a jerk but l have been using Charlie brewers sliders and grubs for years and just think he should be mentioned that's all
