I now only have one distinctive bass rod, a 6'6" Abu Garcia Veritas. It is medium and I have a 6:4:1 Silver Max on it. I also have a spinning rod, it is a Laser and it too is a medium and I use it for my spinner baits and small crankbaits and small jigs. The thing is that I want to get a rod and reel that I can use for both swimbaiting and topwater fishing(frogs, plugs, etc. but mainly frogs and such in thick cover) and if possible using it for heavy jigs. What type rod like MH or H and what are a couple of good rods for it and what reel ratio would be good for swimbaits and topwater? I would like 2-4 suggestion for each rod and reel. I am only 14 and don't have a job so I don't want to spend over $150 total my max would be about $165-$170.
Thanks!
