Weightless flukes,T rigged worms or craws. Grubs and hair jigs . 7 ft 6 medium heavy xtra fast with 10 lb Big Game mono. Okuma 4000 spinning reel. It really works for me 

MH/F Daiwa Tatula dedicated exclusively to shaky heads

Tarpon, cuda, other flats stuff, good rod to have in the boat for the stuff flies can't reach.

Most spinning rods used are in the ML to M - fast , extra fast camp ... Anyone use a MH  F , XF spinning rod - if so , what technique ?

 

I have a 6'6" MH, XF Shimano Compre. I use it as a "general purpose" rod when I'm on foot patrol ( bank fishing ) paired to a Daiwa Exceler 2500/Shimano Sahara 2000 spooled with 8 or 10 lbs test nylon. You can fish ALMOST anything but small/light baits with that rod, the issue is that it's pretty much pool cue stiff and doesn't flex easily so light baits like a 3" senko, a baby fluke an 8 cm minnow jerkbait can't "load" the rod and it takes a lot of elbow grease to cast them far.
