I know we all have our go-to rods. When it comes to a work-horse style of rod. The CH 736 is one heckuva of a frogging rod! I'm trying out the new to me, split handle version for the first time.

Do you normally frog with a 7-3? How do you like that size? I saw that Dean Rojas likes to use a 7-0 when target casting along shorelines.
I'm using a 7-2 in a 5 power and feel at times a shorter rod might be a little better for target casting along edges.

I normally frog fish with a 7'3" or 7'6" when I'm in a boat. From the bank I fish with a 7' or 7'3".
I fish with the 736 and 735 - typically the 736 for the slop, and the 735 for more open areas or popping frogs. But I also kinda feel 7-3 can be a bit too long... I had a 705 when i was a non-boater, and I think even up front I would prefer it as well. Not in any hurry to replae my 7-3's, but if I get another Frog rog I will grab a 7ft'r
Nice setup. Wonder how it would fare for punching?

The 736, is tough rod no doubt. However, for me, I wouldn't use the 736 as a punching rod. The tip is too fast for punching applications imho. I prefer a slower tip, and longer rod for punching.
