Balshy Fishing Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Quick question! I Have 3 rods; a 6'6 MF, a 6'6 Medium Heavy & a 6'9 Medium Light spinning rod. I've been throwing worms on the MF and ned rig on the ML. What do you guys recommend overall for all three rods? I"m having a tough time trying to decide what I should dedicate to each rod. Quote
Poprockz Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 I would suggest you use lures with the rod that matches its weight range. Also keep what line you have in mind when you make that decision. You got most of the spectrum covered with that though. 3 Quote

I run 10lb mono on the MF, 20lb PowerPro to a 6# Seaguar Fluoro leader on the ML and 30lb powerpro to a 12lb fluoro. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 24, 2016 Super User Posted March 24, 2016 ML: Finesse, especially soft plastics M: Everything within the weight guidelines MH; Heavy lures and stronger presentations. Mostly jigs, spinnerbail, buzzbait and big worms. Quote
MainelyBASS Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Another thing to keep in mind are the hooks that are on your baits. If you are using a bait with treble hooks, you do not need a heavier action rod. If your throwing a bait with a single hook (worm,jig, buzzbait) you'll need more power to drive home a single hook. Im basically reiterating what roadwarrior said because he is right. Quote
