Abu Garcia Veritas 2.0 Frog Rod?

Featured Replies

I am looking to get into frog fishing. I know what i need but just cant find the right rod yet. I was looking at the Abu Garcia Veritas 2.0 frog rod for 99$ but ive heard they snap easy. I just want some advice from anyone who has this rod. That would be nice.

I have 11 of the first gens, other than a guide that broke which abu replaced with 2 new rods, no breaks.

 

You can also look at these, I hear the frogging rod is great.

I have Veritas 2.0 7' MHF and love it. I've had some pretty hard jig hook sets close in on heavy fish and never once worried about breaking it. In fact I don't think I've heard that is a problem

I haven't had mine for long, but it hasn't given me trouble. I think that'd be a good rod for frogs. 

I have a 7'11 veritas flipping stick that I punch mats with. So. ...yeah.

The first models broke not a problem no more I love my Vertias's.

Have two veritas rods and haven't had any issues.

All rods break every so often. I've seen my friends $$$ dobyns break in front of me on a hookset.

awesome thanks guys

I don't like any of my MH Veritas rods for frogging.  They're 7' broom handles that do not want to load up properly to launch a frog, are too stiff to get the bait to break into a wide glide and suffer from poor hook up ratios witch I assume stem from them being broom handles.  Maybe the 7'6'' rods have some tip but the 7' rods are too much of a broom handle for frogging IMO.
