dosam Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Hey guys I got a new rod about a month ago and I now use it for swimjigs,spinnerbaits,lipless cranks,spoons and tubes. I have a 6'6'' medium/fast rod leftover. I know that topwaters would be good on it and so would jerkbaits but, are there any other applications that I could use this rod for? I was thinking maybe giving whacky worming a try with a senko. Any suggestions would be helpful. Quote

Definitely can use it for wacky rigging, my M/F BCs and Spinning rods all are my fluke roads and on top of that texas rig weightless plastics and splitshots. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted December 29, 2014 Super User Posted December 29, 2014 Spinnerbaits and Jerkbaits would be my choice but I don't see why it would not work for wacky rigged soft plastic. You could also use this for light swim jigs as well. Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted December 29, 2014 Super User Posted December 29, 2014 That's about the most versatile rod there is. Worms and lipless cranks come to my mind. Quote
dosam Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 Hmm i always thought mh/f was considered the most versatile. I think ill use the rod for jerks, tops and wacky but, I have read to use fluoro for wacky and and I know for top fluoro is a no no . Any suggestion for lines to use to accommodate all these lures, if thats possible. Quote
ChrisWi Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 6' 6" Mf is a very versatile rod. I fish just about every reaction bait on it (aside from cranks) there's just something about the short rod that I love. Quote
