Off the shelf flipping stick: MH or H?

Featured Replies

Looking for suggestions for an all around flipping stick. Fishing mostly stick ups and logs along the bank.

First you did not mention your budget. The other issue is that very few rod makers use the same standard. However if you are looking for some options to look at take a good look at these. 

Dobyns Fury FR 765 Flip for $110. 

Irod Genesis II IRG 754 Fred's Magic Stick for $150

Falcon makes some good rods as well. Look at the Falcon Bucoo series, they have the Amistad model, a 6'10 model and a Heavy Jig model to choose from.

These are some good rods to choose from.

Myself I have an original Abu Garcia Veritas 7 ft HEAVY and it works well.   The new models in that Veritas 2 series runs around $100.

 

If your budget allows you to spend more look at a Dobyns Champion Series DC 765FLIP  or even a nice St Croix LEGEND TOURNAMENT BASS rod. they have some nice flipping and pitching models.

before any rod recommendations can be made we have to know what you are flipping , are you flipping weightless plastics , small jigs , big jigs , 1/4 oz. baits , 1/2 oz. baits , or up to 1 1/2 baits ??? , you could use a medium rod for weightless plastics all the way up to a XH rod to flip 1 -3 oz. baits , you need to elaborate ....

Thanks all. I think I'll be better off to head down to Bass Pro and figure it out there.
