Anybody have any experience with the Powell Spinning Rod 6'8" Med Hvy?

Looking to use this for shaky heads and tube fishing.

Looking for some feedback,seeing as this will have to replace my E21 Edge rod(The green ones they never released in stores).

Unless you use jigeads with heavy wire hooks or fish tubes with a Yamamoto insert weight and a heavy hook I would look at a medium action rod. You might bend out some of the light wire hooks with a medium heavy rod.

I use G-man's shaky heads.So they are pretty thick.However you are right,I'm going have to double check those shaky head hooks and make sure they aren't light wire.

The jigheads for tubes i use are from a local tackle shop using something very,very similar to Yamamoto's insert jig heads with Gamakatsu hooks.They worked well on my other rod which was a Medium heavy as well.

Just curious if powell rod rating are on the heavier side or the lighter side?I don't want to get a MH rod and have it feel more like a Heavy action.If that's the case then I'll be looking more to the medium rods.
