I was fishing with my old pole over the weekend which is a bass pro from the 80's with a pistol grip.
It reminded me how it was fishing with that grip and I've been looking around to find a new upgraded version with a pistol grip but they are hard to find.
Anyway, usually the pistol grip poles are shorter than the straight grip rods and I was wondering if this is mostly because the grip is shorter and it goes by overall length?
If that was the case it would make the reel seat to tip length similar between say a 6 foot rod and a 6.5 rod wouldn't it?
I've found the pistol grip on some bass pro rods and there is at least one st. croix I found but it is 5 foot 6 length.
Anyone know of some others available?
Thanks
