Hi guys,
I am interested in buying a rod to use for larger poppers, in the 170-230gm range. I currently have a Komodo Dragon which I quite like, but which I felt struggled with the lures towards the upper part of that weight range (such as the Hammerhead I-Cup)
I am seriously considering one of the above 2 rods. I have not fished with either. I am familiar with the RF brand as I have a GT79R and also had a bit of a fish with a 78PF on one trip and I really like their rods.
Has anyone by chance fished both of these rods? If so, any thoughts on how they differ?
Otherwise, if anyone can give any comments I would appreciate it.
Lastly, although the above 2 are my primary targets, if anyone has something else to suggest I would be interested. Please bear in mind I am average height, build, strength etc, so I am looking for a rod that will use these larger lures effectively, because I think they are an important part of the arsenal, but is not the most brutal rod in that weight range.
cheers
