GT rod suggestion

<< < (2/2)

Christoffer Hansen:
The 78xh n trsh are not comparable rods. The 78xh is a broomstick and awesome for workin large poppers. The trsh will work large poppers but its hard work. The trsh has a softer tip and will work stickbaits also. If your after a heavy chugging rod go the xh.
If your good with a rod you can work large stickbaits with anything. I used a widowmaker for 200 gammas, certainly isn't the best rod for it I've used but still caught fish with it!

Brandon Khoo:
Jonathan, the 78XH is indeed a very capable rod for big heavy poppers. Just make sure you're capable enough for the rod though! I got broken in half by the prototype of this rod on a trip some four to five years ago after being hooked up to a stubborn fish for some 20 minutes.

The last person we had here who was obsessed by this rod and PE12 was never heard from again! He could leg press 70kg though .......  ;D
