Re: Nibble tip rods.
Ideal for whiting flathead gars etc in the bay. I have used many different nibble tips the best that I found was the shimano bushy bait legend 762 whiting before it snapped now I'm currently using a shimano kidney slapper and love it as well hard to pick between the two. I've also used ugly sticks and the et escape rods. Not a fan of the shimano et escape it has the taper of elastic band however it would still do the job fine for the price that u pay

Re: Nibble tip rods.
I stopped using my nibble tip 8'-9' rods a while ago in estuary. Yes, it is easy to 'see' the bites due to tip sensitivity, however hard to set the hook reliably due to the same reason.
