I know they are out of date and a lot of guys see them as useless, but I have plenty of rods and wanted to try something different. I am looking for a pistol grip rod to throw smaller spinner bates (probably 3/8 oz range) around the pond at the property. Any suggestions? Hard to find much online.

I'm not a fan of pistol grip rods. I was a fishing guide and they wouldn't fit in rod holders...but, I haven't fished them since I was probably 10. I prefer a longer butt rod. Can anchor the rod against the forearm, and angle in fish if needed.
However, if a pistol grip rod, gets you up in the morning...more power to you. They just are not my thing, and mean no disrespect.

I can split hairs with a 5’10” pistol grip rod. I don’t know why, but I’m deadly accurate in as if it becomes an extension of my pointer finger. It seams that all the pros went to deep water fishing and the rods all jumped to 8ft long. Harder to fight a fish with, but good problem to have. Spinner bait king.
