I'm interested to hear how you like the 7'4" XH when you get a chance to fish it. I've been looking for this rod for awhile to do a few heavy cover applications. I'm disappointed that they stopped production of the Poison Adrena line.MTBF wrote:Added a third Shimano Poison Adrena to the arsenal this morning, thanks again to a good friend of mine. I absolutely love the accuracy and light weight the pair of 6'10" Mediums have gave me the last 2 seasons now. The third addition is the 7'4" Ex-Heavy. The action isn't labelled on the rod but feels like a Med-Fast taper. Stiff tip bends lot's in the middle of the blank. Should be nice for fishing my 1/2oz Swim Jig's with a 4" Swinging Hammer. I fish them in pretty heavy cover and have done fine with the 7'1H & 7'3XH Expride rods. This setup just feels more sensitive and lighter with a tad more backbone & added length. Can't wait to fish it.
The Exsence DC looks awesome on this rod. Think I'll leave it on for the next season.
Tightlines guys!
