Mikell Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Im kinda new to the forum, my names mikell and ive been hooked haha I recently got into bass fishing and i love it! I probably use softplastics alot more than action type lures, but ive gotten equal results with both! My new set up is a Shimano Caenan100 on a 7' MH Berkley Lightning Rod, I also use a Pflueger Trion Spinning reel on an Abu Garcia Tournament 6"6 Cardinal Rod! Recently ventured into the land of baitcasting and thats my Shimano i picked up, awesome deal, brand new in package for only 50 bucks, and I put some 15lb seaguar senshi line on it so we will see how that works out! And my smallest set up is a Pinnacle Platinum Plus on a 6" M Abu Garcia Cardinal Tournament rod, currently running 20lb trilene XL I believe, the line was on it when i bought it haha But thats just a little about me! Im open to any advice on good fishing line mono flouro and braid that can be used in the baitcaster! Quote

Mikell Posted June 20, 2013 Author Posted June 20, 2013 my newest endeavor, i put the shimano caenan on a 7' medium CCA rod, one of the ones you can get at academy, i heard decent things for a cheaper rod, and the pinnacle platinum plus is now on the berkley lightning rod, one for soft plastics and one for reaction baits!

Super User Sam Posted June 21, 2013 Super User Posted June 21, 2013 Mikell, outstanding introduction. And Florida is the home to some of the most outstanding bass fishing (plus all other species) in the world so you are in the right place. We can help you master the baitcaster. I will PM you some suggestions but I am off to my double secret pond for a half-day of fun and relaxation throwing those Senkos, drop shots, shaky heads and a crank/spinner/Chatter/jig and pig every now and then. Keep us posted on your activities and please ask your questions. If I don't send you the PM your PM me to remind me. Thanks and welcome to the Forum. Quote
NEjitterbugger Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Mike I love the Seaguar Senchi mono- Put 12lbs on my Quantum antix (baitcasting) and 10lbs on my president (spinning)... I'm currently using Yozuri hybrid line - 8lbs, very strong.. Quote
