    Magnum fluke rod

    Anybody out there have a set up they throw 7” zoom flukes or any big soft jerkbait on. Looking at getting something new for that

    I have for sure thought about the tour versatile for my new mag fluke rod

    What do you guys think about an ALX toadface for mag fluke. I havent owned an alx rod yet but the reviews are pretty incredible and people on here seem to like them.

    Hows the tip on that rod for twitching a fluke. Im sure it has enough power. Hows the sensitivity on the Zolo series compared to other rods in the ballpark

    thanks

    I think the toadface would be perfect for the mag fluke. I don't think you would have any issue feeling the bite with that rod.

    I throw the regular size fluke on an ALX Twitch. Perfect action for a fluke.
    One of the advantages of ALX is the ease in which you can get a recommendation from Alex on the best rod for not just for a specific technique but one for how you personally apply that technique. Just pick up the phone and call. Every time I've talked to him he seems to actually enjoy helping me get just the right rod.
