So whats in everyone's line up? What do you take out on the water and what are they used for? Any left in the bullpen at home?  I'm sure most of these posts will be long, but its always nice to see that we are not alone in our rod and reel addiction.

My freshwater fishing these days is all from shore, I take 1 rod with me.  Fishing a high banked canal I'll have a 7' med spinning rod, 15# braid.  For ponds I mostly use a light power spinning rod and 10# braid.  Lately I've been on the UL kick with top water for my pond fishing, been a game changer from the fun aspect.

A stack of rods from Dropshotting to fishing swimbaits.  All go and adjust my plan of attack on my observations and conditions of what I see.

If I'm in my boat, they all go.  What's more interesting is what's left on the deck at the end of the day.  Guess what I caught all my fish on this day.....

They do use them here, usually bait fishing but sometimes with spoons.  Thought this was cool, guy using one with a surgical tube.
