I have a 7'6" MH extra fast taper rod... what applications would this be good for?  It is a pretty nice rod, and I need to use it, just not sure what I should throw with it.... what would you use it for??

What is it rated for (in ounces)?

its rated for 1/4 oz- 1oz....

Large texas rigs, jigs, and spinnerbaits.

1oz football jigs.

deep diving cranks

Pitchin/flippin, c-rigs, stand out more than anything. Actually you could use it for any other application you would use a shorter XF MH rod for.

I personally would not use it for deep cranks though.

I agree with Hitchhiker that this would be a good choice for C-rigs & Pitchin'.

Great for carolina rig based on the length and with that fast tip.

Incidentally that is my absolute fav rod for flipping/pitchin 3/8 oz to 1 Oz  jigs/trig plastics

I love how practically everyone replying here gives a completely different technique. Should go to show you that it's a versatile rod and most techniques will work with it.

Or that they don't know any better what to use it for than he did.   ;D

I think it's a little stout for crankbaits or any treble hook type bait, unless you're using mono for some shock absorbsion with setting the hook.

Like others have mentioned, C-rigs, Flippin', or even a frog rod. Good luck.

Is an excellent Rod for Carolina Rigs.... but amazing for set the hook in deep water, plastics!!!

There's a lot you can do with that rod.  Just about anything that will work on a 7 footer will work on a 7 and a half footer.
