Potpourri!

A bouquet of St Croix with a smattering of NFC, Rodgeeks and Rainshadow RX7 (Cascade vintage).

A pointless fun pic as I close up camp for the winter. I was too lazy to crawl in the boat to put them in the locker.

Nice, what is that green rod. Looks like an Okuma

You seem to like those MLXF blanks huh?

 

I have a SC Avid 6-9 MLXF as a DS rod and it seems too light in the tip for me. With a 1/8oz weight and 5" worm its like I am at the max lure weight rating? Looking for a new blank about 6-10 F or XF so what do you recommend?

Hey Scott, do you fish anything but a drop-shot? LOL

I'll throw a tube for maybe a dozen casts and a jerkbait maybe 2 dozen casts a year! Lol. The rest is dropshot.

I'd step up to the 5S610MXF if it feels too light. I believe,there is a typo in the catalog because they have the 5s610MLXF rated to 1/2 and the mxf rated to 5/16.

The 3C69mlxf is rated to 1/2 oz too while the 3s69mlxf is only 3/8. Sometimes the casting version is a little beefier

I disregard lure rating because im never casting. I have fished up to 2.5oz weights on my 5s69mlxf.
