XF15-Loader Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted this once in the wrong forum. Sorry bout that! 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

I really like the Lew's but may have to give the Tatula a shot. Thanks 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 or so budget and buy a 100 dollar Abu Garcia reel like the SX in 6.3:1 and a 7' MM Vengance rod for crankbaits.
