Blues19 Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 What rod do you use for your heavy to moderate cover flipping and pitching? Quote
zeth Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Phenix Super Flipper unless the bite is light then I go with something else like a 7'6" M1 Heavy or even 7'. Quote
masterbass Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 I don't do much flipping, but I do pitch a lot. In heavier stuff I use my megabass xx perfect pitch. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 22, 2015 Global Moderator Posted April 22, 2015 I have a 7' 6" MH/F St. Croix LTB and a 7' 6" Pinnacle DHC5 MH/F that both work really well for all but the heaviest stuff. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted April 22, 2015 Super User Posted April 22, 2015 DX795 is the best flip stick I've ever fished. Period. Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted April 22, 2015 Super User Posted April 22, 2015 I've got a new one this year a 7'1" MH/F St. Croix LTB and my old one is a 7'6" H/F Quantum Tour PT. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted April 22, 2015 Super User Posted April 22, 2015 7'11" heavy-action Quantum Tour Hackney flipping stick ~ A-Jay 1 Quote
Zach Nute Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 It all depends on the cover you're going to be flippin' in. I like to punch mats, so I got a 7'8" Xtra Heavy Denali Rods Kovert series rod.. and I absolutely love it...! Quote
Bassfink86 Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 I have two: for lighter cover and lure weights Okuma TCS series 7'6" H MF/F, 15lbs Seaguar InvisX fluoro, Lew's Tournament Pro Speed Spool 7.1:1 for the jungle Castaway Skeleton 7'6" XH/F, 65lbs Spiderwire Stealth braid, Tatula Type-R 8.1:1 Quote
DTack Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 My favorite rod to flip and pitch with is a Dobyns 795dx... I put a Tatula Type R on it last year, it's worked great for me and I can't believe the price. 70lb braid is what I finish it up with. Quote
kikstand454 Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 7'11" veritas > 7.1 quantum pt tour> 65#PP braid. Quote
War Eagle 44 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 I've actually got quite a few options, for the last 5 or 6 years I've been using a Powell Max 7105 which I really enjoy. It's been the rod I've flipped/punched with more than any of my other rods by a wide margin. I've been really considering getting a new Max 3D 806 lately due to how much I've enjoyed my 7105. Quote
