Taylor Peterson Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I wanted to make this post to thank Bass Resource and all of its members for all the help it has provided. I have been fishing for 3-4 years since I moved from California to Minnesota(more oppurtunities to fish here IMO). For 4 year I have been using a 6' uglystik with an old shimano solstace. I decided this was the year to step it up since fishing is my absolute passion. I posted many many topics on this forum trying to learn as much as i could and what everybody's opinnions were.... My Final Setup: *** black 6'7 medium-fast, Pflueger summit 6935 with 8 lb. seagur fluoro *** black 7'1 MediumHeavy-Fast, Lews Tournament Speed Spool with 50 lb. Power pro I put 50 lb. braid on the casting setup because it will be used for frogging and flippin/pitchin in some heavy cover. The spinning combo will be for wacky worms, jerkbaits, and spinnerbaits under 1/4 oz. I wasn't really considering 13 rods until I felt them at Cabelas and they were far superior in balance to any of the other 100$ options IMO. Thank you to everyone who gave me advice, I am so excited to catch some Largemouth!!! Quote
719BassFishing Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 *** makes a great rod.. good luck and tight lines! Quote
masterbass Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Great choices. IMO omens are the best in their price range. I just recently purchased some higher grade rods, but omens will remain in the arsenal. Quote
Frogfather Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 You picked a great rod! I love my ***. The price, sensitivity, and cost vs performance is all outstanding. Quote
flippin and pitchin Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I sense confidence in you selections. That's awesome. The stuff out there available to anglers is incredible. Enjoy your set ups. Quote
ClackerBuzz Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 well thought out combos. unfortunately they won't work. please mail them to me 1 Quote
Super User F14A-B Posted March 22, 2014 Super User Posted March 22, 2014 Good job! Enjoy using them! Quote
tip2oo3 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I'm in the same boat, wanted some good gear and had no idea what to get. Ended up with a 7-3 *** and tatula reel all from info on this site Quote
RippinLips4 Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 I have a 7'1 MH *** and I love it as an all around stick but defiantly as a chatterbaits and spinner bait rod I can feel everything going on. Quote
