Fishing Rods

Im thinkin of teh 69 MH or 7 MH which one?

I prefer the HE70MC for any and all(except heavier swimbaits) treble-hook baits. It's 'soft' tip helps keep me from ripping the hooks out. I caught two 5+lb Bass recently that had only two points of the rear treble hook in each of them; one int upper, outer-lip and the other in the outside of her 'face'. I don't think I would have hooked much less landed those two with any other rod. IMO, the MH and the H rods would be too 'stiff' for that bait.

Hank, I have both the 70MC and the 69APC. I throw a lot of cranks and prefer the 69APC for the lipless stuff. As SD said, the 69 has a touch more backbone which helps when burning the lipless stuff. Either rod will work for the application, it is really a matter of personal preference. Just buy both.

I would agree, either the 69APC or the 70MC would be better. I use the 70MC for the 1/4oz traps and small crankbaits and 69APC for the 1/2oz traps and spinner baits.

My 6'9APC has become my buzzbait rod, so I throw lipless on my 70MC and love it. I'm sure you would be happy with either...

i started off with one and now i got 7 .. and some pricey reels to match well at least for me and another reel on the way ... man i got a serious addiction here . i need some help......... nnnnnawwwwwwwwww just need to go fishing

rattle trp rod - 6'6"mh. like it because i can put it excatly where i want it.
although may try 7'6"hc some time it has a great soft tip and a stiff back bone.

Hank, I like the 70MH for traps. The reason is because the area where I fish has a lot of hydrilla. The medium heavy is good for ripping traps through the hydrilla. I like the 7' for the distance. You also have to turn the fish and keep them from getting down in the hydrilla.
