DTuck9 Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 I am looking to buy a new frog rod and I would like to have your opinions. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted October 5, 2008 Super User Posted October 5, 2008 St Croix Legend Tournament LTB70HF "Frog -n-Slop". Or if thats out of your price range try the Avid AVC70HF. I recently bought both and the fish the frog equaly well. BUT my favorite frog rod is neither..........thats right. I have an older (pre IPC) St Croix Avid AC610MHF that IMHO is a PERFECT frog rod. Long enough for long casts and good hooksets, short enough for pin point accuracy in tight spots, the shorter length makes walking the frog much easier IMHO, and it's a much more powerfull rod than the MH rating it sports. St Croix doesn't make this rod any more, but from time to time they turn up on e-bay. Quote

DTuck9 Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 It doesn't matter if it is the best rod!! Quote
deadeye32. Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 I really like my Kistler Magnesium Jig and Toad Special. It's not as expensive as some of the others but performs well for me. Quote
Bassyak Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 I second the 704C, though mine is a Powell. Nice, flexible tip for flinging lightweight toads, but plenty of power in the butt to haul out a hog. Paired mine with a Curado 200DHSV and 50lb Sufix braid. Quote
