Super User burleytog Posted July 18, 2008 Super User Posted July 18, 2008 Got a new 6'9 MHF in today, was getting ready to throw a reel on there when I decided to weigh it. 6'9 MHF LTX weighs 105.45 grams. 28.4 grams per ounce. Therefore it weighs 3.7 oz. All I know is that it is lighter than squirrel feathers. Quote
Evan Pease Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I weighed mine with a letter weigher a few weeks ago and I believe I got 3.7 for my 6'9" as well. Pretty cool... Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted July 18, 2008 Super User Posted July 18, 2008 Must be something in the water, mine weighs the same. Quote
Evan Pease Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Must be something in the water, mine weighs the same. I guess consitency is a good thing amongst rods. I remember Avid saying he liked G.Loomis because he knew what they would feel like for a particular model and that they wouldnt change. Quote
Megastink Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Consistency is key in rod manufacturing. But despite performance, i cant bring myself to buy a Carrot Stick. The reason is that where i come from (NJ/PA) the fishing can be good, REALLY good, but in key spots. A lot of guys run around a lake and see if youre catching fish, and if they see you, theyll come right in on you. Im sure this happens elsewhere too. I just dont want an opposing angler to see a BIG BRIGHT ORANGE BEND in my rod. It kinda makes me stick out like a sore thumb, ya know? Quote

Megastink Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 Its an epidemic, especially on lakes like Greenwood and Hopatcong. Quote

Super User Muddy Posted July 20, 2008 Super User Posted July 20, 2008 Geez I can't even see my carrot so I can't weigh it! Quote
