I recently had a chance to check out the Keith Combs Signature series (his big cranking rod) and it is awesome IMO. Its not on the market yet but when it hits I plan on buying a couple. I am currently using the Abu Garcia Vendetta (one MH and one H) and they work but compared to the Keith Comb Series they leave alot to desire IMO.

Agreed.


Is it too much for the 5xd and 6xd?

I've got a 7-11 Daiwa Ballistic that I've gotta be careful not to chunk em into the campgrounds and it's got a nice & forgiving parabolic top third. Loaded with 12# invizx on a 5.1:1 reel. Need to re-gear to 3.8:1 for better zone coverage...

The best rod out there is a Hookspit 10xd rod.

I can throw the 6XD on it really well. I'm not sure about the 5XD. I'd imagine it'd be fine as well.

I have the rod in the following link in the 7'10" MH model and works pretty darn good for the 6XDs. I can only assume that if you step up to the heavy instead of medium heavy you will be able to handle the 10XDs with ease.
