Re: Black hole challenger rods for fluke/seabass/tog
Can't speak to the 701 or 731 M but imagine they're both terrific rods.
That said, I have an 801 MH and I'm a huge fan. It's an excellent choice for offshore sea bass, tog, and bottom fishing in general imo. It's lightweight, sensitive, powerful, and can be used comfortably with heavy sinkers/jigs. Another big plus is that you can swing almost any bottom dwelling species (around here) over the rail without any problem.
The rod could work for deep water fluke, but it's "overkill" for my preferences. I wouldn't use any 8-foot rod for fluke either.
Either way, the 761/801 MH is a fantastic rod, and I'd highly recommend getting one if you're interested.
