zmanlane Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 okuma guide select xtra heavy... but if you want to spend 30 more bucks, get a Heavy LDC Production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willduhhbeast Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Speaking from the point of view of a guy who has the guide select XH, and the LDC H. Try to find 30 more bucks and get the LDC production H! You won't regret it. Even if you have to wait a few weeks to scrounge up some change or something, DO IT!! The okuma just has NO feel to it in my opinion. Its not a bad stick, just doesn't stand up in a competition with a LDC production H. Also to note, if you intend on throwing primarily 8 inch hudds on mono, you could potentially step up to the production XH LDC. I throw all of those baits you mentioned on the H, but I also use braided line. Just my opinion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im thinking about selling my FS shad for the extra money, but I'm still hesitant about doing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd7 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 irod also has one in that price range i believe. i think the large one is rated for that stuff. i've never used one myself but might be something to look into. others might have more info on it.
