AmeliaAngler Posted May 28, 2017 Posted May 28, 2017 I just bought a Shimano Calcutta 400B , I am a long time bait cast enthusiast and I used to have a Calcutta 200b. I am going to use this reel for medium sized tarpon an snook, using live and artificial bait. I will occasionally throw a bass lure on it but I already have a curado. Im not sure what size to get our how heavy the rod should be. Thanks Quote
Super User WRB Posted May 28, 2017 Super User Posted May 28, 2017 My suggestion would be to look at 8' swimbait rods. Tom 2 Quote

Tom I have my 400B on an 8' XXH swimbait rod. It works well for the biggest swimbaits I will ever want to fish, and has also done well slinging A-rigs all day for stripers. 1 Quote
