Megabass F5-72CG Swingfire

Post by Tony9 » Thu Mar 10, 2016 3:39 am

Hi Guys. I just picked up a Luna 103L and looking for a rod to go along with it (~$225 max). I am looking at the Megabass F5-72CG Swingfire. I searched but did not come up with much. Does anybody have experience with this rod? It's rated at 1/4 - 5/8oz. Just wondering how it will handle lures up to 1oz.

Also considering the Phenix X12 and Dobyns 765CB Glass.

tony, i have the orochi XX swingfire which is rated for heavier weights than the levante version (3/8-1 oz compared to 1/4-5/8 oz) and i feel one ounce is really, really pushing it on that rod.
