I'm looking into getting myself a setup that is specific for flipping and pitching. I'm getting mixed opinions on whether to get a heavy power or a medium heavy power rod, and whether to get a mod-fast action or a fast to extra fast action. The cover up here in the North isn't as thick as down south and was wondering if any other Northern fisherman could give me some examples of the rods they use for this technique up here?
I have heard a lot about "bass will strike at something they think is food, even if they have never seen it before" To what extent is this true in northern, smaller, inland lakes?
If generations of bass for thousands of years have been seeing sunfish and dark crawfish as forage... will they still find a white pattern attractive? Especially in clear water where natural colors seem key.
Am I disadvantaged with just using bluegill and crawfish patterns?
