This set up is superlight as you can see its under a pound. Got my PB at 8.2lbs, bunch of 5lbs and I feel everything with this setup, jig up to 2oz max. The rod has a good backbone and the reel I've put a powerhandle on it, the one thing I wish the rod has was a longer grip on top for better leverage. It's a fun set up for togging

I have a Revo NACL and love it as well... It's pared with the 7'6" Loomis GL2 Heavy rated 1-6 ounces... I tried jigging with it and could not feel the jig on it, especially lighter ones so I use it exclusively for rig fishing.
Looks like your set up is a lot lighter then mine and as mentioned above, that makes all the difference in the world.. With a lighter set up you get much better sensitivity and feel. You can practically feel the fish breath on the jig and it makes a HUGE difference.
