jitterbug127 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I currently have a silver max and inferno red 7 ft mh with 30 lb braid as my only set up. I am wanting to add a second simply because the bait monkey got me. This combi has been great for a single. I am a bank beater and river fish smallies. Lots of jerk baits, poppers, cranks, some senkos what I use mostly now Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted April 8, 2015 Super User Posted April 8, 2015 Maybe pick up a spinning set up to fish lighter baits. Quote
EvanT123 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 If you like to river fish I would suggest a 6'6-7'0 medium light spinning rod or a spinning rod with a 1/8-3/8oz lure rating. Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted April 8, 2015 Super User Posted April 8, 2015 x2 on the medium to medium light spinning combo Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted April 8, 2015 Super User Posted April 8, 2015 Yep. MLXF spinning rod all the way. Light baits, drop shot, river tackle etc... Killer 2 punch combo!! Quote
Super User new2BC4bass Posted April 8, 2015 Super User Posted April 8, 2015 If you like to river fish I would suggest a 6'6-7'0 medium light spinning rod or a spinning rod with a 1/8-3/8oz lure rating. X4. Find a used Fenwick Smallmouth 6'9" MXF. I believe they made it in both spinning and baitcast. Pretty sure I have both. Quote
Steveo-1969 Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 X5. My go-to rod for river smallie fishing is a MLXF spinning rod. Quote
OntarioFishingGuy Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 X6. A ML/F or ML/XF would be perfect for rivers smallies with the baits you mentioned. Quote
