Only 7' 3" Vendetta rods shown on the Abu website are a MH-XF and a H-Mod. Fast. It better be your favorite rod since it is your only rod. Otherwise you won't be a happy fisherman.

I'm wanting to get another, because I want a better all around rod, but for now its fine. I like it, but I'd definitely want a better one.

flyfisher reply :

LunkerFisher reply :

Ok I'll play:

Spinning-6'6" ml st croix premier

Casting-6'10" mh shimano crucial

Those 2 rods can handle about everything except big jigs, hollow frogs, and deep cranks.

Never fished a Rage, but at the current sales price, I think it would be a no brainer if you could come up with the funds before they are sold out. Otherwise on down the road I think the Fenwick HMG and *** Black would be a couple low cost options at their regular prices that should be a nice improvement over your current rod.

kickerfish1 reply :

Megabass Orichi XX EMTF and a Scorpion 1000XT

Megabass Orichi XX Shakeyhead Stradic CI4

Dye99 reply :

Quantum energy on ducket 7'6 casting

Quantum energy on st. Croix avid 7' spinning...

Mattfrom_NJ reply :

Spinning: 7 mf avid, 3000 stradic fj, 10lb pp slick

Casting: 7 mf avid, curado I, 20lb suffix 832

Pretty much covers it all for the inshore and bass fishing I do.

Gloomis imx 783 Mbr shimano Calcutta conquest 100

Custom st croix sc3 7'0 mlf and shimano stradic 2500 fj

lmbfisherman reply :

Lately it is -

Casting - Fenwick Elite Tech Smallmouth 6'10" M/F paired with a Citica G7

Spinning - Fenwick Aetos 7' M/F paired with a Shimano Stradic FJ 2500

Master Bait'r reply :

If I had to pick one of each out of the arsenal...

Spinning: 7'1" MLXF *** Black w/ Pflueger Supreme XT.

Casting: 7'3" HXF *** Black w/ BB1 Pro (blows me away how versatile this combo really is)

But let's be honest I could never go out on the boat without my NRX 852c & Ito Ai. I'd leave the spinner combo home waaaaay before I'd leave this bad Larry behind.

Cgrinder reply :

New kid on the block is getting a lot of time on the water; I keep reaching for the 7'2" H Zodias. Shimano got this one right.

offsidewing reply :

Spinning - 6'8" MXF St Croix LTB w/ Plunger Supreme XT 30 size

Casting - 7' MF St Croix Avid X with Shimano Metanium XG

.ghoti. reply :

I answer this question every time I go out on my yak, because I take one casting rod and one spinning rod. The answer is different every time.
