Thats why I didn't buy that model, heard it was too soft. Still searching for the perfect frog rod with that "it" factor.

7’2 heavy is a awesome bottom contact rod and versatile in other areas.

I am looking at the 6’11 Medium+ as my Topwater rod. I have an Expride 6’10 Medium that I love. Most off what I throw are 1/2-3/4 baits. I was thinking this rod might be a little better for that. I also throw some jerkbaits, underspinss, etc. Any thoughts?
The 610 medium is perfecto with the standard 3/8 oz jerkbait. I'd imagine the 611 would be best with half ounce jerkbaits. Not sure if 3/4 oz top water would be ideal for it.

Btw, I heard there will be 3-4 more rods released in the adrena lineup in the spring.
Figured this may be the case with how well the current models offered are selling. Great news!

I would love like a 72ML+ with the same taper as the M+ but with a sweet spot between 1/4-3/8.

No, I was looking at it hard but the PA was too interesting looking to pass up.

I wish the 611M+ had a bit of a softer tip, but other then that I am really really loving it the more that I fish it. I changed over to 14lb Sniper from 12lb and think it's a better fit.

The 6’11 is super versatile I like it a lot , paired with Alde 50 mgl and 20lb braid. I had a chance to fish the 6’7 spinning and it’s fantastic. Sensitivity is outrages it’s very close to the nrx in my opinion. Just has a tad shorter handle Which makes it fun to fish with. It’s noticeably lighter than the addermine

Depending on the person but 3/8 and higher for sure when using the 7’2” rod. I’ve got 20# floro on a Steez Ltd and 1/4 with rage bug for now

I have toyed with the idea of this over a spinning rod. In the end a spinning rod is necessary in some situations IMO

The 611M+ is a lot of fun with a D-Shad. The tip is too stiff for a Zoom Super but the heavier D-Shad casts very well and the rod works it well. It's longer then I want for tip-down work from the bank but from a raised position it's really nice.

I am really really impressed with how the rod fishes, it is so comfortable and just fun to use. It's light without feeling brittle and the reel seat is a joy to hold. While I still think I prefer the power/taper combo on my 783c, the Adrena is such a more comfortable rod that I can see myself reaching for it far more often.

What did you throw on the 67?
