Grantman83 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Savvy 735 and something with a solid drag and high speed. Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 savvy 735 Tatula 7:3 65# braid Quote
ColdSVT Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I have a *** black 7'3 h with citica e6 and 65# pp Works nice and it can bomb holly body froggys a mile! Any rod over 7 will do in a mh and up depending on whatt kind of cover you wanna fish Quote
robster80 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 cabelas tournament zx 7'3 heavy with Lews super duty 7:1 Quote
OntarioFishingGuy Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Mojo bass 7' Heavy w/ Tatula 7.3:1,and 50lb 832 braid Quote
SenkoGuru Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I use a Duckett White Ice 7'3" Heavy with a Shimano Chronarch 200E7. I use 65# Power Pro braid and I have yet to find a better Frog set-up. I've pretty much come to the conclusion that their isn't one. Quote
CJV Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Hands down best frog combo ... iRod Air 704 heavy iRod gensis 2 754 "freds magic stick" I personally use a 8.5.1 Shimano metanium however the Tatula type r or new Shimano curado would be great choices. Your line is also critical get the best stuff out there my recommendation would be either 50-60lb Sunline fx2 best braid ever. Quote
DTack Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 What I would suggest depends on what your price range is overall and where you would be fishing the bait. As a do it all with price not being a factor and fishing in both open water as well as the absolute thickest of cover the one that I use is a Dobyns Champion 736c with Tatula Type-R 8.0:1 and 70lb Daiwa Samurai braid.I was using a Curado E7 and the drag slipped A LOT on hooksets, not going to work for me.

Super User WIGuide Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 St. Croix Mojo Bass 7' H/F and any reel that's got a strong drag will do. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 What rod an reel do you sug for a frogging setup? Thanks Are you in the market for a setup? You are going to get bombarded with suggestions. A little bit more info on your part will be helpful. Most importantly your budget? That will either increase or decrease your options... And... to answer your question... my main frogging outfit is a Champion 736 on a Curado I with 50lb PP Quote
KevO Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Dobyns Champion 735, Chronarch 200e7, 65# braid. Quote
War Eagle 44 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Powell Max 735 with a Citica 201E and either 50 or 65# braid. I "upgraded" the drag to Carbontex, no slip. Quote
TTS Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Last couple of years I've been using a St. Croix Mojo 7' MH "spinnerbait" rod, Lews BB1, and 40lb or 50lb Power Pro. Good compromise for target casting smaller patches of weeds and making bomb casts on larger weed flats. Tom Quote
Super User aavery2 Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 Gen 2 Revo STX, 6.4:1, this reel makes a lot of smooth drag pressure, Falcon Cara Jason Cristie signature series frog rod, and 60lb test Sunline FX2. This setup works Quote
MT2 Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 I use a Quantum Dean Rojas Frog rod which is a MH rod, with a 7.0:1 Accurist reel and 65# braid for the past few years......This year I picked up a 7' 4" Tatula Frog rod and slapped a Tatula Type R 8.1:3 reel on it with 60# Sunline FX2.....love the set up....in time my old set up could very well find its way to a new owner.

Smallmouth Hunter Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Look into the tatula heavy power rods too.. Some people on TT really like them, and tatula rods are very lightweight! Quote
