Sp032o Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Hello everybody. I am getting a Abu Garcia vendetta 6'6" MHF and an Abu Garcia Orra s 30 spinning reel. What are good types of lures to throw on this setup? I was thinking all kinds of topwater, spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jerk baits, small jigs, all types of soft plastics, and frogs. Let me know what you think. Thanks Quote
kfelton0002 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I recently bought my husband a Abu Garcia Orra S spinning reel combo (the rod is a medium/fast action) and we throw mainly topwater frogs and plastics (senkos and creature baits) with it. It will cast a mile even with a weightless 5" senko! And with some heavy braid it is a beast for froggin. We haven't invested in a medium/heavy or heavy setup for froggin yet and seem do well with the medium rods/reels. Tie on a flurocarbon leader and throw senkos, flukes, craws, etc. Its an awesome combo. We don't do much crankbait, jig, or spinnerbait fishing in the ponds we fish but spinning reels are very versatile and you can throw any type of lure with them I imagine. I am a firm believer that you can make one rod work for you for any type of lure and any scenerio you could be fishing. We have several setups.. 5 spinning setups ranging from ultra lite to medium and two medium baitcaster setups, but we have one setup each that we use 90% of the time and they work for us. Quote
kfelton0002 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Your medium/heavy rod will be ideal for froggin! Invest in some good quality braid that is at least 30 pound test and have fun hauling them in! Quote
