ib_of_the_damned Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Just wanted to know what techniques are best suited for a 6'6" rod with MH/Xfast rating? Quote
Super User dodgeguy Posted October 26, 2009 Super User Posted October 26, 2009 almost anything. Quote
nUgZ Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I use my Falcon Cara MH X-Fast rod for senkos, t-rigs, light jigs, and some shakey-head fishing. Quote
NewAngler Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Gonna guess.. I never throw cranks, but maybe a deep diving crank? Quote
uicdent11 Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 All bottom contact baits for sure. May get away with it for spinnerbaits depending on how fast it really is. I would definitely NOT throw any crankbaits with it. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted October 26, 2009 Super User Posted October 26, 2009 Well, you can fish just about everything with one rod, but yours is best suited for single hooks. For treble hooks, a softer tip is more desirable. 8-) Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted October 26, 2009 Super User Posted October 26, 2009 See, what do I know? Don't feel bad , I learn something new here almost every day. I've learned one thing here for sure , sometimes it's best not to comment on something that you have no experience with. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted October 26, 2009 Super User Posted October 26, 2009 You didn't list the length. I have a an Avid AVC62MXF that I use for sniper style spinnerbaiting, topwaters, and hard jerk baits. In most cases, fast or x-fast rod is NOT what you want to use with treble hooked baits, but the medium power of the rod I'm using suits them. I prefer the quick tip recovery of an x-fast rod for topwaters and other "twitch" retrieve baits. This rod also handles medium cover drop shot applications pretty well too. Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted October 26, 2009 Super User Posted October 26, 2009 MH-XF.....like most people said, just about anything with a single hook like t-rigs, jigs, and spinnerbaits Quote
FordNFishinLover Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 I'd say its going to excell in Finesse jigs and t-rigged baits. Quote
