curtis9 Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 I currently have a 68mxf ltb spinning rod which I use for shakey heads and senkos. I want to pick up another rod to use for shakey heads and drop shot. I'd like to have 2 rods which can be used for a combination of those 3. I've been looking at the ltb 610mlxf, 610mxf and 70mf. Anyone that's used these rods have any reccomendations they can provide? Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted December 7, 2014 Super User Posted December 7, 2014 I prefer the medium-light for those tactics. I love the 70MF and have a couple of the Elites, but the ML has a much better action for dropshots; plus they can handle shakyhead just fine. 1 Quote
ColdSVT Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Man o man lol Once ya go LTB it is tough to go back lol Being that you already have a MXF i would go with the 6'10 MLXF...that way way you can go more finesse should you want to 1 Quote
Jolly Green Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 No experience with the rods mentioned, but just FYI if you decide in the next couple of days, you can go to Gander Mountain and get $50 off purchases of $250 or more, and another $50 rebate from St. Croix. $150 brand spanking new ain't bad for one of those. 1 Quote

That's why I need to make decision soon. Sounds like the the mlxf will be my best bet Quote
SDbassin Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 I just got a st Croix avid x 7'0 M/F that im gonna use for shakey heads, wackey rigged senko's and weightless stuff and plan on getting the 7'0 ML for dropshots. haven't used the avid x yet but so far im really impressed Quote
Super User tomustang Posted December 8, 2014 Super User Posted December 8, 2014 I have thrown dropshot, shakey, and t-rigged senkos on the 610MLXF. That rod can handle a lot. Quote
