T-Rig Senko Fluke Setup

[EvanT123]

Im looking to refine my trig senko fluke set up I have two basic question brand name and price aside.

Reels - would a 6.4-1 or 7.1.1-1 be better?

Rods - looking at 6-6 to 7 med hev would a fast or ex-fast tip be better?

Thanks for the input.

Reel: 7.1:1 (you want to be able to pick up line quickly if the fish is running towards you)

Rod: 7' M/F or MH/F (7' gives you more line pickup on the hookset and a Fast action gives you a fast enough tip to drive home a hook, but enough give to not rip it out of thier mouth)

Thanks for the info I was looking at shorter than 7 bc I fish from the shore in tight places and a small boat. I found a Powell endurance online for a 100 bucks but it has an xterm fast tip. Think I could get away with it?

No doubt. Powell makes a great stick and xfast would work just fine. Go for it!

Great thanks alot

x2 on the Powell. You will not be disappointed, I use both the 6'7" Endurance MH/XF, and a 6'8" M/XF for the purposes you listed. The 6'7" gets weighted t-rigs, senkos, while the 6'8" is my dedicated Fluke rod.
