born2fish94 Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Every one here knows that I fish the coosa chain. Without a doubt one of my favorite techniques for magnum spots is a 1/2 to 1 oz spinnerbait. I throw a 3/4 the most. The rod I currently use does fine but is very stiff and can sometimes rip them away. So I am looking for one that's around 7'3 and heavy action. let me know what you guys would suggest. Quote
Ozark_Basser Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I would recommend Temple Fork outfitters 7'3" H tactical series. These rods have a good parabolic bend and are awesome for moving baits. They also have a good warranty. I use the 7' MH signature series for moving baits and love it, but you can't find the sig series as easily. They may have quit making them. Quote

ncbass Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I have a Loomis SBR 864. It is their big spinnerbaits rod. Have fished up to ounce and half Ledgebusters on it. Has a nice action to launch the big spinnerbaits and has a progressive action with good bend in the upper half of the rod and lots of power in the butt section. I looked for a long time for a rod with this action and have never looked back. Caught bunches of big mean largemouth out of Falcon Lake on this rod. I have it paired with an Chronarch 100BPV and this is a work horse outfit. Usually has 40 or 50 lb braid with 20 to 30 lb flouro leader. Quote

einscodek Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I actually use my swimbait rod to chuck my 1oz+ spinners cause I've found even with my flippin stick I am wanting/need for more hooksetting power with the extra weight and big blades resistance.. plus it flings them much farther. Quote
zeth Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Phenix M1 check them out. It's the rod I use for 3/4 oz. spinnerbaits all of the time. Quote
KC5TTC Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 I am a Denali Guy. Go look at the Koverts and Noirwood rods. Quote
bigfishbk86 Posted May 22, 2015 Posted May 22, 2015 Personally I would not go with a moderate action rod, unless you'll be using braid. A dobyns 735 would fit what you want to do pretty well, a cheaper but incredibly nice rod fit this would be the tatula 7'4 frog rod. I personally have used both of these for 3/4 and 1oz spinnerbaits and they work great! Quote
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted May 23, 2015 Super User Posted May 23, 2015 If it's in your budget, the Megabass X4 Destruction is pretty sweet...it can do so much. Quote
