Lazz Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 So after reading a thread here at BR and talkn to a couple of local fishermen last week, going on about swimbaits, naturally I start looking into it...whoo...I immediately come to the conclusion I need a swimbait rig..haha. Guys are catching serious weight on these things, well serious weight for up here in the Northeast anyway. So I'm not sure if I want to go out and get something that's going to be able to throw 8oz+ or start with say something in the 3-5oz range. Thoughts and suggestions please? Quote
livetofish28 Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 St croix mojo bass swimbait stick 1-4 oz or okuma guide select big bait rods both retail for about 130 Tight lines Andrew Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted May 11, 2014 Global Moderator Posted May 11, 2014 Okuma Guide Select with a 300 Cardiff and you're good to go without breaking the bank and you can fish any bait you'll need in your area. Quote
Lazz Posted May 11, 2014 Author Posted May 11, 2014 Hahaha... That's exactly what I was looking at. Thinking 40lb braid... Thoughts on this? Quote
livetofish28 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 i would say that, that is a little light a lot of swimbait guys use mono so you may want to look into that. i use copoly and like it tight lines Andrew Quote
