Super User new2BC4bass Posted January 11, 2022 Super User Posted January 11, 2022 1 hour ago, EWREX said: you've got some real nice gear, i hope your interest is high enough to get out there a few times to put that stuff to work! Thanks. Me, too. Only reason I have so much gear is because fishing in this area sucks so bad. New and new-2-me gear is what kept me going out. I actually quit for 23 years because of the poor fishing here. Shore fishing is limited and highly pressured. A boat would help. Something that could be used on the upper Delaware River would be great. There is a Delaware River forum. Guys mention 100 fish days (Smallmouth). Doubt I've caught 100 fish since getting back into it 13 years ago. Had more than 100 fish a day (mostly panfish) where I'm originally from. I'd gladly settle for half that today even if they were all panfish. 1 Quote
TNBankFishing Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 I fish a lot of tournament's from a kayak and usually bring 5-6 rods depending on the time of year and techniques I plan to use. In winter I often only need 2-3 sticks, while deep summer I have a hard time only loading up 7. Not buying a full size bass boat has saved my wallet from the bait monkey many times.

Super User LrgmouthShad Posted January 14, 2022 Super User Posted January 14, 2022 I just recently got a somewhat multipurpose rod. Harold's Lone Star Special 6'9". This will be my jig/worm rod and I'm considering also trying it for shallow water, target casting with spinnerbaits. The reason I might lean towards it as opposed to my other spinnerbait rod is because the lone star special has a fast tip which might serve better for deflection. I'm hoping it can perform particularly well around thick wood. That makes my 2022 lineup iRod Cold Stone Swim and Vibrating Jig Rod + REVO Winch (spinnerbait, buzzbait, lipless, spoons) 7' Heavy, fast iRod + REVO Winch - I'm thinking of making this for things like heavy jigs, big worms, big spinnerbaits, and the johnson silver minnow in heavy cover 7'3" Heavy Lew's Carbon with a cheaper Kast King reel = frogging + punching till I wear out the combo Harold's Lone Star Special + ??? reel = jigs, worms, spinnerbaits A cheap spinning combo = senkos, devils horse Should be set! 2 Quote
Super User king fisher Posted January 14, 2022 Super User Posted January 14, 2022 I fish out of a kayak and try to limit myself to 4 rods. I sometime replace one bait caster with a spinning set up. 1.Medium fast Diawa Ardito travel rod, Tatula CT reel. Sunline Defier Armilo line. Most crankbaits, poppers, lighter jigs, and worms. 2. Medium heavy fast Diawa Ardito travel rod. Diawa Tatula CT reel. Sunline Defier Armilo line. Spinnerbaits, chaterbaits, larger crankbaits, most topwater, any other moving baits. 3. Medium heavy fast Diawa Ardito. Diawa Coastal SV reel, 40 lbs. JBraid. Jigs, worms, buzz baits, some crankbaits if snags are bad. 4. Heavy fast Diawa Tatula rod, Diawa Coastal 200 reel 50 lbs. JBraid. Punching, flipping, frog, A rig. Way to light for A rig but does work, I need a new rod. I occasionally bring a medium spinning rod. Just when I thought I had everything I needed, I found a new lake, with clear water, I need to expand my spinning gear and learn some finesse techniques. 1 Quote

JohnFromLisbon Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Here's my lineup: Spinning: IMX-PRO 852S + Stradic FG 2500HG: the "all purpose" spinning setup, also great when I take someone else fishing NRX 802S JWR (older model) + Vanford 2500HG: drop shot, ned rig, and general finesse combo Casting: Zodias 6'10 Medium + Curado MGL 71HG: jerkbaits, poppers, Keitech football jigs, blade baits, shaky heads E6X 845C CBR + Chronarch E5 201: cranks and chatterbaits IMX-PRO 844C MBR + Curado MGL 151HG (the reel is currently somewhere in a DHL warehouse in western Germany, should get here by Monday or Tuesday): jigs, 3.8-4.3 Keitechs on Flashy Swimmers, spinnerbaits, t-rigs Expride 7'3XH + Curado K 201HG: frogs, pitching heavy cover, punching If I'm bank fishing I either just take the MBR and the 802S, keep the one I'm not using strapped to the side of my backpack or add the 6'10 medium once it gets warmer just so I can throw a popper on it. It will also pull double duty with smaller crankbaits. If I'm on the canoe I'll usually bring 4 rods. If I'm out on a boat with a guide I'll take all of them, might even add one of my old Mossybacks with another Curado K. 2 Quote

I bought it on a whim when it was on sale and I had been wanting to check those Techna's out. Of course if I sell it I'll probably just buy another rod and be back in the same boat, no pun intended. 1 Quote

Need to replace the Abu, it was my first baitcaster that I learned on but it's....not enjoyable to use. It's okay for what I'm doing with it now but it's got to go. Will eventually replace the jerkbait reel with an SLX MGL and move the standard SLX over to retire the Pro Max. Other than that, no other imminent goals for the lineup. Just slow upgrades. 5 Quote
