OntarioFishingGuy Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I am looking at going big and getting a Legemd Elite 7'6" ML power XF action to use for dropshots. Was wondering about the overall performance of this rod. I will most likely be pairing it with a stradic CI4 and 10lb braid. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Quote
skeletor6 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Here's a nice review on that rod. http://www.tackletour.com/reviewstcroixles76mlxf.html Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I dont have that particular model but I have this one LXS76MF. Its the step up I use for just about everything I do for spinning fishing from shaky heads, ds, senkos, to small jigs and tubes. It is the best spinning rod I've ever used. That reel is also a great choice. Good reel and light. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted September 2, 2014 Super User Posted September 2, 2014 LES70MF would be my suggestion for a GREAT all-around spinning rod. Quote
OntarioFishingGuy Posted September 2, 2014 Author Posted September 2, 2014 LES70MF would be my suggestion for a GREAT all-around spinning rod. Thanks for the suggestion, but I already have a couple of avids that I use for everything you would use on a spinning rod except for dropshots. I don't feel like either of them have the right action, so I am looking at a more dropshot specific model. I also prefer longer rods, which is why I was looking at the 7'6". I will definitely consider that model in the future for a shaky head specific rod though. Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted September 3, 2014 Super User Posted September 3, 2014 I built an Avid in that action and power and absolutely hated it til I fished it with braid. I couldn't keep fish buttoned up when I used it with fluoro. Quote
