Gavin.Ange Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Hey guys im new to bass resource but i have been looking at the feeds for a while. Anyways im looking for a swimbait rod and to pair with a shimano cardiff 300a. I would prefer a st.croix but im open to other options. Going to be using swimbaits under 3oz and would like a rod under 8ft. thanks Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 22, 2016 Super User Posted January 22, 2016 Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ I have & really like the Okuma Guide Select Series Big Bait Casting Rod Look at the 7'11" Med Hvy GS-C-7111MH A-Jay 1 Quote
Gavin.Ange Posted January 22, 2016 Author Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks!!! I mainly fish okuma reels but dont have any rods. I'll look into them A-Jay Quote
Super User WRB Posted January 23, 2016 Super User Posted January 23, 2016 Take a look at the swimbait rod thread by Deep on this page. The newer Okum A series Giude Select is another choice, Irod Gen II series swimbait rods are excellent, both balance well good with the Cardiff 300 series reel. Tom Quote
Klebs01 Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I have the st croix 7'10" LTB swimbait rod which works great for 1-4 oz baits. I have even been able to go lighter with no issues. Haven't needed to go heavier. Quote
Grantman83 Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I just picked up the Dobyns Fury 795 swimbait rod and it feels great. Quote
