I do not find that bass care. I don't fish crystal clear lakes, but I do fish some clear streams, and those SMB don't care at all. I've never found that pond or lake LMB care either, but again, I'm not fishing crystal clear fisheries. Fluorocarbon doesn't handle near well enough, hold a knot near well enough, or make near enough economical sense for me to fish it anyways (and I use to fish it).
I would honestly get a 6'6" or 7' M/F Daiwa Aird-X and slap the Fuego on there. Ugly Stik, pond, minnows, Senko. You're frugal, and that's perfectly ok. Those things work. For this I would 100% get this rod in the same scenario. It performs like $100 anyways.
