Got 2 TFO rods that are 7'3" Medium Heavy Rods. Got them in an auction for $100. Didn't need them but for the price I had to bid. Anyways what would you use them for? They are basically extras for me right now.

Those are Tactical series? I use mine for T rig, flukes, heavy shaky head, you can throw a deep crankbait on them..... They are a light medium heavy and I think jigs over 1/2 ounce and C rig over 1/2 ounce are too much for them.....I have 9 of them

Those are the G Loomis Tactical Series. Gary Loomis designed and produced by TFO. I have one and am in the market for more. I really like them. If you want to make your money back on one of them, I'd be interested.

I had 2 of them and used them for heavier 1/2oz plus spinnerbaits and traps. Even threw deeper cranks on them. I didn't used them as much as my medium action ones so I sold them on here last spring. Like most have said, tip is softer than most MH rods I own and I didn't like that for applications like jig or t-rig. Coach

Not at this time. My BIL and his buddy are coming down in the spring and bringing reels so I need the extra rods.

Part of the fun of fishing is experimenting with different setups. Try different weights of different types of lures in different settings, like open water, overhead cover, short casts, long casts, etc. You'll soon know which lures/presentations work for YOU on these rods.
