Okuma White Diamond Rods

[Double Dipper]

I'm adding wire divers to my spread this year. Has anyone used the white diamond diver rods from Okuma? Pairing them up with okuma convector 30 and 19 strand Torpedo wire. I found two 10ft MH on eBay for under $90.

I love them. If your a fan of the blue diamonds, I think they are a step above them.

I like these in 8'6".  I bought a pair of 10 footers and they were way to stiff.  The ones I had were with the wire tip installed.  Legacy - do the ones you bought come with their new wire tip?

Were the 10ft MH? I have the option to get them in ML. I wanted the 10ft to increase the distance between my riggers. The guides seem heavy enough to take the wear of the wiper. Does the okuma new wire tip compare the torpedo tip?

They were medium heavy.   I'm not familiar with the torpedo tip but the new okuma wire tip worked well last year.
