I like to fish my billed baits on the MH LDC. Of course im not throwing anything huge, biggest has been a sk175 but, the rod has a great tip for that kind of fishing IMO. When I have fished billed baits on the H I feel like with the stiffer tip I have missed several fish because I ripped the bait out of their mouth. If you throw traditional baits too, the MH is perfect for throwing big crankbaits like the XD10. That rod is so versatile, I cant get enough of it!!
