Best Rod Action And Power For Each Techniques??

[FLbass1999]

So I'm buying a new baitcaster soon and I'm stuck on what Rod Action and power I should get.
I do allot of texas rig, carolina rig, weightless worm, swimbait, so basically allot of Soft Plastic/Finesse fishing.
So what would be the best Rod action and Power??

You can't go wrong with a fast M/H. Even a medium. I wouldn't use a medium power though if you are throwing some big swim baits. T-rig etc would do you just fine. I got a St.croix mojo bass and a *** black couple months back and love them. they will only run you around $100. Can't beat it.

I use a 7 foot medium fast or 7 foot medium heavy fast rod. The medium for my worms, and the medium heavy for an all around texas rigs.

7' MHF is probably a good fit.

Depends on the brand, in my opinion. Some may be better off with a medium, others a MH might be the ticket. Any ideas on a manufacturer?

Medium Heavy is what you want for fishing plastics. Medium heavy is pretty versatile all around, but I would say the lightest rod you think can handle it.

Mh/F

But that only goes so far, some rods run softer than others, if you are gonna get a duckett I'd bump it up to a heavy.

I'd say MH/F too, maybe a medium if you throw mostly lighter stuff.... For the stuff you listed though I would think a MH would be great.

As usual, it depends a lot on where and what you will be fishing, a MH fast could be considered the " all around ", true to a certain point, it could be an all around until you find yourself fishing heavy woody cover or tough emergent veggie cover like pads or tule, there a MH doesn't look like an "all around" as it used to look. Choose the power depending upon where and what you fish and not depending upon what we ( without absolutely no idea ) think it would be "best" for you.

Shimano, All Star Rods, Denali, St. Croix, Daiwa, Duckett, Okuma, Quantum.

For those techniques, I'd probably go with a MH/F.

[illinifan4152]

A 7 ft MHF is a great all around rod for those techniques

Okay cool. Thanks! That's what I've been leaning towards, Thanks for the help everyone!
