XF15-Loader Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 OK, here's the deal. Last season I was given a BPS Xtreme 6' medium rod with a Curado CU200. I purchased a Falcon Bucoo 6' 10" MHF rod and paired it with a Lew's Tourney MB 7.5:1. The Bucco worked well for me but I felt it was a little light. So this year, I bought a St Croix Mojo Bass in MHF. Now, my question is this, if you had the following gear, how would you pair it? 6' BPS Xtreme M 6' 10" Falcon Buccoo MHF 7' 1" St Croix Mojo Bass MHF Shimano Curado CU200 6.3:1(?) Lew's Tourney MB 7.5:1 Another ~$150.00 reel (suggestions) Let's hear what ya think. I was using the BPS for top waters and shallow cranks but I'm up to hearing anything. Thanks -J Quote

CrustyMono Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 curado and the st croix, if that is the spinnerbait model it is a mod or mod fast. it would work well for treble baits and for cranks and spinnerbaits and plastics the bps and less would work well for tw and plastics, casting into tight cover. Daiwa reels are nice any reel 300-100 is good, i like the zillion and tattle ct Quote

CTBassin860 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Thats the jig rod.I have it and just paired it with my Curado 70. Quote
CTBassin860 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I'd keep the lews on the mojo and use it for jigs.I'd put the Curado on the falcon and use it for T-rigs.The BPS I'd put a cheap reel on it and let company use it.Then I'd take that 150 budget and buy a 100 dollar Abu Garcia reel like the SX in 6.3:1 and a 7' MM Vengance rod for crankbaits.
