Those plugs are either 9 or 10 inches long? How much do they weight and how do you cast them without breaking your rod? btw I think they are nice and cool. Just don't think I could cast them without breaking my rod and was wondering what kind of heavy duty setup you are using. thanks

Hi Porgy75,the top piece is not heavy at all,it is about 3 oz,the bottom one is heavier and it has to be around 4 or a touch more.
they are not wide bodied at all,they are on the slim side[for me],my other big swimmers will bust a rod that's not for heavy fishing though.most of what I fish is from 4-7 oz with some of them being 3 oz.
my heaviest is 8 oz.
my big sticks which I have 5 are rated anywhere from 2-6 or 3-8oz and range from 9 ft 10.
I am working on,,,slowly,an old daiwa regal surf rod that's glass and 11 feet,rated 4 oz,was a spinning rod but,will convert it to a winch rod.
got it for nothing and it's in decent shape.
should work out well.
