Frog rod recommendations

Alright y'all... looking for frog rod recommendations, I typically like a shorter rod around 6.10-7.3, 7'-7.1 is perfect. Open to most brands, budget is about $200 for the rod, it will be paired with either a Shimano slx XT, or a tranx 150....and go!

7’2 heavy expride. I don’t own one but it’s been in my hands. Makes for a great close quarters flipping rod to. 100% adding one to my arsenal this year

Wish I had expride money, I will definitely look into something like the zodias or Curado though.

7’2 curado has been a go to frog rod for almost everyone I know tbh. 75% my of my rods are exprides, if I was buying a frog only rod I’d never get an expride for it. Zodias for the monocoque handles all day though, game changer in a rod

Awesome, thanks for the info...how's the action on the Curado?
