Does anyone have any experience with a spinning Fenwick HMG ML/F. At the moment I’m using a pretty light trout rod for my bass fishing and looking to upgrade. I mainly fish weightless 4 and 5 inch Senkos, mojo rigs with finesse worms and a 1/8 weight, some lighter Carolina rigs with a max weight of 3/8. I’d also like to be able to throw some bigger t rigged baits, like a 10.5 inch big ol monster with a 1/4 weight on occasion. I’d be using 8lb test with this setup. The weight rating seems like this rod would fit my needs, was wondering if anyone has any feedback?

More detail

I have 2 of them I use them with 6# fluorocarbon line for Ned rig fishing.  I haven’t used anything heavier than 1/8 oz because I have other setups for heavier applications.

I have the previous generation 6'9" ML-F. Great for Ned or drop shot. Decent for light texas rigged trick worms. A little light for 5" senkos Texas rigged. Good for wacky rig though. 

 

To be honest don't use it much since getting a BPS Carbon lite 2.0 6'8" M-Xf. The Carbonite does everything I want it to do very well. 

 

Still can't part with the Fenwick though, special place in my heart
