If you are planning on being a cranking guy or really like to crank it might be time to get a technique specific rod! More than likely you are using a med fast or medhvy fast rod and that isn't great for cranking. You want a med or medhvy mod rod for cranking. Again just like line the mod action of a cranking specific rod will provide some shock resistance so when the fish jumps, etc you won't pull the hook out of him/her. Plus a mod rod slows down your reaction time to a bite and allows the fish a pinch more time to really get a hold of a crank.
