I have been looking at many different rods and what I should have thought of before was if a heavy rod is to stiff. I have watched a lot of videos on frog rods and most people say to just get heavy rod with fast action. I narrowed it down to a 7’3” mag heavy dobyns fury if I get a heavy rod but I wanted to hear from other northern anglers if that is to stiff for up north. Rod recommendations would be great too. Maximum price of 130$. Most weight I would use will probably be 3/8-1 1/2 oz
