I am in serious need of a GOOD flippen / pitching rod . I want the rod at 7 ' ( not 6'6 ... not 7'6 etc.. )
For this rod, it will be primarily be used to bust through hydrilla mats and thick thick slop !! ( so a heavier weight would be used )
The rod(s) I have been useing just realy dont cut the mustard in some of the places I fish .( not enough backbone )
I have been looking at BPS and have found one on sale that may work. ( plus I like BPS return policy.. replace for free lol )
Extreme™ XPS™ Woo Daves ( 7'H )

I also had a thought but I do not know if it would work or not. My thought is to use a salt water rod . I am unsure if a curado would mount on it etc.. The rod I was looking at is this one
Falcon® Coastal™ XG Series Casting Rods ( XXH .. 6'10 ... close enough to 7' lol )

I also know a rod builder and probably will try one of his rods as well, but we will leave him out of this for right now.
Ok, lets hear yalls thoughts and or suggestions. and remember this is for thick junk !
