What rod would you use to throw a Texas rig with a weight between 3-16 to 5-16 oz?

Once you put a worm or creature on there, you're gonna be more like 1/2-3/4oz

 

MH/F - the 'Swiss Army Knife' of rods

Oh this is too easy

 

iRod Genesis III Harold’s Lone Star Special. I can do a lot with that rod but most of the time, it throws t rigs with the weights you described 

 

I have it paired with a Curado MGL 150

I have these that would work:

 

Shimano Expride 72MH 3/8-1oz

Megabass Orochi Perfect Pitch 1.2oz

Falcon Lowrider Head Turner 6’10” HF 1/4-3/4 

Daiwa Rebellion 7’3” MH F 1/4-1oz

Dobyns Champion XP 684c HF 10-20 1/4-1oz

Shimano Poison Adrena 7’2” HF 7/16-1.5oz

Daiwa Tatula Elite Brent Ehrler Finesse AGS 7’ M-MH XF 1/8-1oz

Daiwa Tatula 7’3” MHF $73 at midway right now

 

 

 

I have more that would work but are a little heavier, like 3/8-2oz. 

843 MBR-G Loomis

Depends on the situation for me but some form of a MH-H fast rod is the standard. The rods I throw a T-rig on are

 

7’2” MHF Expride B (main t-rig rod)

6’10” MHF Zodias (skipping, sniping cover)

7’3” HXF Legend Tournament (grass and brush)

7’2” HF BLX (weeds, pitching)

Any MH/F rod that's in your budget and feels good in your hands.  I like Kistler rods, myself.

 

Good luck choosing.  

Narrowed it down on my own time to the 843c MBR vs the 7’2 MH expride. Which would y’all choose between the two?

First off, you can't go wrong.  If the 843 is glx or above, I'd choose that one, if not, the expride.

I’d go with the Loomis. I’ve got a 843 IMX-PRO & a ALX Toadface that I use in that range. 

Never used a Loomis but the Expride is an amazing rod. Both are great choices though

Had the 844 MBR Glx and much prefer the Expride.

GLX is fantastic, IMX-Pro is definitely no slouch. Get which you can afford. I use both versions 

7'3 1/4 or 5/16-1oz lots of good ones out there, just depends on budget.
