What's Your Breakdown Of Fishing Gear Of Baitcasting And Spinning For Bass?

[olegs]

3 casting:

St Croix LTB 7'1 mf / Shimano Citica

Dobyns DX743 mhf / Shimano Chronarch CI4 

G Loomis GLX 854 hxf / Shimano Cronarch 201E

I love them all

 

3 spinning

Favorite:  St Croix LTS 6'8" mxf / Simano Saros

10 casting

 

I think thats about right but I don't use them all and made some changes so I am not sure exactly. I have many more rods though.

LDC M/H - Diawa Lexa 300 is the most used of all my casting rods.

 

3 spinning

 

Pflueger President - Fenwick Elite Tech or HMG for the rod. I don't use them much but the HMG has been used more this year since I have done like 0 drop shotting or anything of that nature and it was new this year.

 

This I know for sure but that is only counting ones I would actually use. I have way more all over the place that are never used or for other people. Then more I leave on other people boats for out on the lake. Those are usually a UL or something light

 

I have some fly rods I have not used in ages also.

Before marriage and children (especially before children), I used every rod and reel listed at least once a year.  Unfortunately, most of those combos have now been put on the a once in a several year list.  One day I hope to get them back into annual service.
