Fishin Hard Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I'm looking to buy another baitcaster. Right now I have a lews tournament speed spool on a 7'1 mh *** and 50 lb power pro and I use it for everything. I want another one though. I mainly fish from banks...I was thinking a 7'1 med *** with a lews tournament speed spool and 30 lb power pro. Am I thinking right ? I throw everything with that rod, what could I throw good with that medium action rod. Derrick Quote
Fishin Hard Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 Actually considering the bb1 pro also. What's the difference in the tournament speed spool and bb1 pro ? Quote
masterbass Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 7'1" medium is good for jerkbaits, topwater, lipless, shakey head, weightless plastics, wacky rig, drop shot, light jigs/t rigs, even squarebills. Quote
bootytrain Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Just curious.. Why are you limiting yourself to only those 2 brands? Quote

Super User lmbfisherman Posted March 26, 2014 Super User Posted March 26, 2014 Nothing really further to add to masterbass's answer. Quote
Fishin Hard Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 Okay thanks guys. So I'll be set to cover most everything with a 7'1 med and mh? Quote
Super User tomustang Posted March 26, 2014 Super User Posted March 26, 2014 Shorter rod for topwater and jerkbaits, look into the 6'10 or 6'7, you could still do most techniques in the lure rating on the rod except for cranking well. Quote
