PBBrandon Posted May 14, 2022 Posted May 14, 2022 I stopped at Scheels today and picked up the 7’4” HF Tatula cork frog rod. While I like how light it is, it is a bit tip heavy and very stiff. They also had the 7’1” HF Tatula Elite jig skipping rod and I’m starting to wish I would’ve got that rod instead lol. Is the 7’1” elite a good rod for frogging? If so I might go down and exchange it. Thank you Quote
Deephaven Posted May 14, 2022 Posted May 14, 2022 Where do you throw your frogs? If it is super nasty slop the big daddy is good if more on the edges I would go lighter. Quote

The rod will also double duty as a jig rod for anything over 1/2oz + trailer Quote
Super User Columbia Craw Posted May 14, 2022 Super User Posted May 14, 2022 The 7-1 hf skippin has some guts. I had one. You can frog with it. 1 Quote
Super User Catt Posted May 14, 2022 Super User Posted May 14, 2022 I have the TTU731MHFB 7'3" Medium Heavy Fast. I use it for throwing frogs & punching (3/4 oz). The only thing you gain using the Elite is an EVA Grip. 1 Quote
PBBrandon Posted May 14, 2022 Author Posted May 14, 2022 I went back and swapped it out for the 7’1” H Tatula elite. Did a tip test with the 7’4” Tatula against my 7’ HXF Veracity and they had pretty much the same taper. I can do heavy slop work with the Veracity and lighter frogging/heavy jigging with the Tatula Elite. Thanks for the help and I’m ready for frog season ? 1 Quote
