It"s here!!!!!!!

keithdog · 02-23-11, 07:36 PM

It came today!

My new froggin rod. The Vendetta 7'3" H-XF. I've paired it up with a Revo and soon will be spooling 50# Sufix Performance Braid. Always used Power Pro in the past but gonna give this Sufix line a shot. I've got other plans for this combo besides froggin. I plan to use it for my soft body swim baits, weedless spoons, and swim jigs in areas like lilly pads and such. As you can see, I picked up a River 2 Sea Divin Frog. Can't wait to give that a try. A bit concerned though about the legs as they don't seem like they would take much abuse. I guess we'll see. It comes with a spare pair of legs and a tool to change them out. And yes John, I'll let you try it out in May!

Keith, take the pic again, the revo's blurry!

lol, just kidding. Nice looking combo for sure, sounds like a sweet set up for what you're gonna use it for.

btw, how's the "factory tuned" balance on the puppy?

Well, it' seems nice but not sure it's much nicer than the balance on some of my other rigs.

Looks even better than when it was still in cardboard!

Don't do it man, John will put some bad Mojo on that rod. You will have to sacrifice 7 life chickens and a goat just to get the jinx off of it.

Good looking setup man, hope you like it.

Cavs1123 · 02-23-11, 09:37 PM

Nice combo!!!!!

Marc David · 02-23-11, 10:53 PM

TN_Bassin · 02-23-11, 11:01 PM

Lovin the Abu gear. Doubt you'll have any problems with those for years to come.

fish4942 · 02-24-11, 10:19 AM

That frog does look a lil hurt. Maybe that's a good thing in the water.

Justin2729 · 02-24-11, 11:05 AM
