I definitely like the look of the rod. And now to know about the recycling and the giving back to the environment makes me want to give them a closer look for sure. Thanks for the great review sir!!!!
I do have one and I love it. I had the same issues you did with the guides but I moved past that. They are very sensitive and the back bone is spectacular. I will recommend it to friends and family. I can’t wait for the toadfish spinning reels to hit the market!
Toadfish has a Kickstarter campaign right now to develop their own toadfish spinning reel. I’m supporting the campaign and made a pledge to get the rod and reel combo in December. I can’t wait to get it.
dunno if you guys gives a damn but if you are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all of the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my brother lately :)
Great, honest review. Just bought the "Convict" model for sheepshead fishing. The XF blank is supposed to be the best for these notorious bait stealers. Keep them coming!
Been using the sheephead rod for about a year now and I love it, my wife loved mine so much so I had to buy her one too. I just bought the medium 7'2 extra fast can't wait to use it
Excellent review Chris. I have two of the exact same toadfish rods you have and I love them both. Good work on the review and keep the videos coming brother.
@@CaptChrisCanning That was a very honest review Chris. I own 2 toad fish rods. I agree with everything you had to say. So far I haven't had any problems with my Keegan guides and I pray I don't.
Hey Chrissypoo.. You know me, my rods are all St. Croix because I like the sensitively of the rods.. But have to admit I've been looking at other rods because of the expense of a St. Croix rod.. I've looked at a toadfish because of you and Josh and you huyys using them.. Haven't definitely decided yet, but getting there..lol. Good to hear about the sensitivity of the rod.. Great video and information and sharing with us.. Keep up the good work and and always look forward to your videos.. Always your friend, fan, and subscriber..
Nice review Chris. It seems that no matter what brand of rod it is these days the eyes are an issue. I've always preferred eyes that are anchored above and below but it makes for extra weight and cost.
Just ordered 2 of the med extra fast one piece rods. Can't wait to get them and try them out. I live at the coast in NC. So I have plenty of fish to catch. So far TFO's are my favorite rods. I honestly think these rods might change my mind. I will post again after I receive them and try them out. I am really really excited!! Oh I forgot to ask. What size reel are you using on the med? Landon G.
I think it was a great looking rod but then I used it and it was not balanced and seemed quite heavy. Also, the handle seemed to twist in my hand when my hands were sweaty a d had a big bass on. I actually sold mine on Craigslist
Hey brother!!! What size would you recommend for more live bait kinda mangrove/fresh water catfish catch what ever bites kinda rod? I’m gonna grab one tell em you sent me obviously 🙄 and give a test myself. I think I’m gonna also grab a mojo from Josh’s channel. Should I get both the same “size/action”? I typically just stick with the Penn combos and have never really outfitted a rig.
I bought travel one -I will not buy it again - they sell things different from advertised,i purchased this one through Fishbrain site and it is says 1/8-3/4 oz, but in fact they will send you one with 1/4-1 oz. This is Huge difference for one wjo using small lures.Even with 1/4 you cannot cast for more than 15 meters. Action - it should be fast, but i cannot feel the bites. I opened the paypal dispuite and they refusing to refund. Moreover - one tip was broken, so they contacted me and told that they will send new rod , and I agree with that despite the fact that the original one was sent not as described. After I agreed they just sent me 1 replacement tip instead. So at the end - I have unwanted purchase that was not sent as described. I tried to write a review on their site but it is impossible if I put it on 1 or 2 star , it is censored or whatever reason, I dont know. All reviews on site seems only from one or 2 last months, this is looks strange
I like the rod it is nice looking but I will not buy anymore from stores, I bought a name brand rod and three casts in it shattered in my face so I build my own I got three and have yet to have one break.
*Back in the day... If my rods didn't get spanked with JB epoxy welded at least 1/2 a dozen times... the poor thing's feelings would get hurt and they would just leave home because they didn't think I loved them anymore... Bend it... break it... fix it and cry when you have to get a new one* Thanx Chris..gw
Beware! The tip top and guides have a real tendency to lose their rings. Cheap! I saw rods in the store with missing rings. I bought two of these rods on closeout and had issues with the rings pop out. The blanks themselves seem fine. I also don't care for the cheap reel seat and handle. Plastic crap in my opinion. Now I must rebuild these two rods, or give them away.
Hey Chris does it sink with a reel on it ! 🤣. Does it come with a gps tracking chip ! Can you get loss insurance on it ? ( sorry bro I had to bust your azz.) You and Joshy go thru rods but you guys are flogging the water a lot , so your harder on equipment, most of my rod and reels come from goodwill and yard sales , but sometimes you get lucky you’d be surprised what people get rid of !
For the price I would expect better of the guides. I'm like you transport rods in and out of back seat of truck, so due to the cracking of guides, at that price I gotta stay away from em.
@@CaptChrisCanning add some basic useful products bro for eg:spinning rod and reel,landing net,top water lures,brided line etc.. Some of these products can you add in the giveaway bro. Those are useful for the biginers is to be added in the giveaway😀 Hope to do so😍
Toadfish rods are junk. They will snap out of nowhere on a cast or while you're trying to net a catch. They will try to give you a new one for half price. What a joke! The last one 7'6" medium heavy snapped in half casting a greenback with a split shot.
I definitely like the look of the rod. And now to know about the recycling and the giving back to the environment makes me want to give them a closer look for sure. Thanks for the great review sir!!!!
Thanks for watching John! That is a huge reason why I like to support their brand.
I do have one and I love it. I had the same issues you did with the guides but I moved past that. They are very sensitive and the back bone is spectacular. I will recommend it to friends and family. I can’t wait for the toadfish spinning reels to hit the market!
Thanks for sharing! I have had a first hand look at the reel 👀 shhhh
@@CaptChrisCanning I preordered two of them. I can’t wait!
I have a combo toad fish 6'2ft./3000 reel have not used it yet but will very soon, just spool 10lb test line this reel is extremely fast love that 😂😂

Nice work on the video, great rod and definitely worth the money.
I just ordered that exact rod thanks for the piece of mind. great review.
Thanks for watching Matt. You will like it

@Merrick Lawrence Definitely, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself :D
Great, honest review. Just bought the "Convict" model for sheepshead fishing. The XF blank is supposed to be the best for these notorious bait stealers. Keep them coming!
I appreciate your comment. Most people say I’m paid to say the things I said. Far from the truth. Lmk how you like that sheepshead rod
Been using the sheephead rod for about a year now and I love it, my wife loved mine so much so I had to buy her one too. I just bought the medium 7'2 extra fast can't wait to use it
I have 3 and love them. Can't wait to hopefully get their new reels
These are great for the price. My bud has ones and loves it. I’m thinking of getting one to replace my calico jack as my main kayak rod. Great review!
I would get one to see how you like it. I have been very pleased, thanks for watching
Excellent review Chris. I have two of the exact same toadfish rods you have and I love them both. Good work on the review and keep the videos coming brother.
Do you think that it was pretty honest? Thanks for watching ken
@@CaptChrisCanning That was a very honest review Chris. I own 2 toad fish rods. I agree with everything you had to say. So far I haven't had any problems with my Keegan guides and I pray I don't.
ken willcoxon I really do put my in and out of my truck 3-4 times a week EASY. So it had to have been my fault
Are these rods pretty heavy?
I have that rod and i can tell people this is one of the best which i ever purchased,and also have that Piscifun Carbon x reel,great combination:)))

Gotta love St. Croix Rick, you can't go wrong. if you ever want to switch it up you would very much like the toadfish rods.
I like the Rod. Feels good in your hand. Great video Chris.
Right on, do you have one David?
Nice review Chris. It seems that no matter what brand of rod it is these days the eyes are an issue. I've always preferred eyes that are anchored above and below but it makes for extra weight and cost.
ALWAYS an issue Gary! Eyes will get a man in trouble.
That is a gorgeous rod. Awesome review Captain
I love it
Great review, just got a TFO med and it's great, but may get this rod next.
Whenever you go to get another take a hard look at Toadfish! Thanks for watching
Awesome review! I love the colors! Maybe I’ll have to get my boyfriend to buy me one 😘
You should!
If you are cute. I might buy you one 😜

3000 my man! Thanks for watching
Would you recommend the rod with a 3500 abu Garcia Zenon X reel for freshwater
I think it was a great looking rod but then I used it and it was not balanced and seemed quite heavy. Also, the handle seemed to twist in my hand when my hands were sweaty a d had a big bass on. I actually sold mine on Craigslist
just ordered one we shall see
I personally think the toadfish would look sick with dark red instead of light blue.
They should do a couple different colors!
I fish for flounder a lot Wich one would you guy's recommend?
Nice looking rod and overview
Thanks my man 👍
Hey brother!!! What size would you recommend for more live bait kinda mangrove/fresh water catfish catch what ever bites kinda rod?

7'4 medium extra fast tip. That's the size I would like for live bait

Do these come in 2 piece? I drive a compact car and it's important to be able to collapse and put in my trunk.
Nice rod and reel bro
Thanks 👍
Can i use this setup for speckled trout & redfish
Tie on a new guide
How would this rod work with a baitcaster reel?
I like the rod it is nice looking but I will not buy anymore from stores, I bought a name brand rod and three casts in it shattered in my face so I build my own I got three and have yet to have one break.
What blanks do you like?

Is this American made
I do not believe so, I wish
