I have the 7’6 Gander Mtn GSX for a frog rod it’s alright I also have an Abu Garcia Veritas 7’6 medium heavy rod. I prefer the Abu Garcia. The price is about the same as the gsx. When I set the hook with the gsx and horse the fish out of weed mats it feels like the rod could snap at any moment. The Med heavy abu feels more rigid than the heavy GSX.
