Anyone have a Cara T7 7'2 XH?

[Fat-G]

If so, how does it fish? I have the Lizard Dragger Lowrider which is rated at a HF, but I wouldn't dare use it for that. It's way too soft.

Just wondering if the Pro Grass (XH) would be good for t-rigs, or if anyone has any experience with the 7' HF Cara, as that could be an option too.

Yes i the Cara 7'2XH and the 7HF.. The 7HF Cara is the way to go for t-rigs out of the two.. You will notice a HUGE difference between the 7HF lowrider that you have and the 7HF cara. The lowriders are soft for there ratings because they have more of a moderate action blank. I use the pro grass as my punching rod it is VERY STOUT way overkill for t rigs. I promise you will love the Cara 7HF.

P.S. If you have any questions about any Falcon rod I am very knowledgeable about there rods

Interesting, you say that the Lizard Dragger is to soft.  I use the Cara T7 Head Turner for that application with no problems.

You could try the Amistad,

Depends on your style of fishing a t-rig. The Pro Grass is a BEAST. I've been using mine for pitching 10 and 12 inch worms into standing timber and brush piles and I love it for that purpose. It has a very nice action for pitching larger baits. I will say that I'm 6-5 and 240 so it might not be as comfortable for others as it is for me.

Yes the pro grass is a beast but thats it.. Its awesome for punching/pitchin close quarters heavy cover but it does not cast lighter t rigs that well

I was talking about my Lowrider, not a Cara. don't get me wrong, I love the feel and sensitivity of the Lowrider, it just has such an odd action I can't come up with how to use it.

I have the lizard dragger and felt the same way as you. Ive found its perfect for the 3/8 -1/2 buzzbaits (I throw them ALOT). Its also a pretty good 3/8-5/8oz rattlebait rod, not too fast when fighting a fish, but fast enough to rip out of the grass.
