Comments: I've had mine for a year now I love it. I have a 6.7 mh and I'll tell you now it shocked me by how strong it holds on I have fished everything I can on it and has been my favorite one I've bought some expensive rods and I'll say this out preforms them all. I fished a frog a lot last year and from think to thin stuff that holds strong ill be buying more of them for sure. I don't know if ppl have had bad luck with some but never had problems

Comments: I have 1) heavy 2) Xtra heavy 1)Xtra Xtra heavy and love them. Use them for musky and pike also for flathead catfish. Caught a 38" 22# flathead on the Xtra heavy and when fought right with the right drag setting these are great rods I'm transferring over to all these rods .

Comments: Bought the 7'4 heavy for frogs and swimjigs first time using it throwing a frog landed a 9lb 3oz Florida largemouth and pulled her through lillypads and grass and the rod performed extremely well. Picked it up on sale and so far am very pleased with my purchase.

Comments: I have the Heavy Swimbait (1-4oz) I've used it quite heavily for 3 months now and I really like this rod. It loads perfectly around that 2.5oz range you can get away with 4oz but its just a tad heavy (lob cast). Handles 1oz well too. Casts real nice and feels indestructible(it also floats in case you drop it in the water). Overall 10/10 rod for me

Comments: I have the 73MH and it has been a great workhorse. Have put it through the paces for several months and it has been great. Really light, really sensitive, jacked may fish on it and no issues whatsoever.

Comments: Won the 7'1" MH all purpose road through a Wired2Fish givewaway. Paired it with a Shimano SLX reel. Threw mostly chatterbaits on it, or did. I only used it on three fishing outings, the third being the last. Snagged my chatterbait on a lillypad stalk and gave two swift tugs to free it and it snapped. I've had all kinds of rods over my 30+ years and I have never snapped a rod and trust me there are probably times I should have snapped a rod. Just blows my mind. I saw a few of the other reviews pointing to failure and just thought it was sour grapes or something, but stay away. For $90 you can find solid rods elsewhere or hell even for another $10-30 you can get something much, much better.

Comments: heavy paired with a 13 fishing concept z, worked great for about 2 months of avid lake fishing. until rod failed and snapped on a hookset on a 6lb large mouth. Definitely gonna invest my money elsewhere, but for the money not a terrible rod. Easy on the hooksets gentlemen.

Comments: I purchased the Squad 7'11 Hvy for my punching mats rod here in Florida. Everything was going well, until about a month and a half in and disaster struck. The rod exploded on a hook set. I ordered another one to replace it while the first was being sent back. However, first tournament, snap, in almost the same place as the first on a small grass snag. Needless to say they both are being sent back for refund. It's weird because the 7'11 XH Browser has worked great!

Comments: I love the 7 foot 4 heavy for frogging. Its awesome I've used it for jigs, frogs, shakey heads and many more. It is weighing in at 4oz. So for the price point it is my all time favorite rod.

Comments: I have the 7' 3" med heavy and it works awesome for several things. I use it for a chatter bait because it loads up so nicely and has enough backbone to still stick em. This spring I have caught over 15 bass on it the biggest being 4lb 8oz smallie with a blade bait. Very versatile and worth it for the price!
