Great idea, thank you Tony
Personally, I use the Randy Howell dock skipping/swim jig rod just about every day in the summer, but the Brent Ehrler multi-purpose and Chatterbait rods are tough to beat too
While draft collars are great for warmth, they can sometimes detract from comfort, making the user feel somewhat restrained, especially when tossing from side to side
The only major concessions are in durability and ventilation: the Blaze uses less hardwearing materials throughout to shave weight, including a mix of 100D and 210D Robic nylon, and its foam backpanel prioritizes comfort and support over breathability
The big plus is that it's much lighter than the Surge
this capable performer makes for a well rounded package that is definitely worth the small sum of money it costs to own one
