I have an MGX/HS on a Falcon Mike McClellan 7'2" MH rod and 10# fc sniper flouro. I used it to cast 1/8 oz to 3/8oz swim jigs for aver a year now and really like it. It is my javorite rig.
I've had no problems with the MGX at all, but for $150 less get a Lew's Tournament Pro speed spool....Does the same things and weighs only 1 oz. more... 1 oz. does not = $150 in my book...JMHO
Today I bought a BPS PQ 4.7:1 ratio and a Veritas Winch series 7'6" MH rod for throwing deep cranks.
I've loaded it with 12# P-Line flouro. It feels well balanced and didn't break the bank so I dropped the dough. I mostly fish weeds, points and ledges out to about 12ft so fishing deeper structure is new to me.
Does anyone here have any experience with this rod or reel or maybe even this exact combo?
I'm most concerned about casting distance to get the lure down its working depth.
NB,
I've never seen a Dobyn's, but I can +1 the Curado 200E7...
My fav is: Falcon McClellan 7'2" MH/MF Swim Jig rod
Revo MGX-HS
12# Berkley Vanish "for the time being"
