ksdog Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 I'd like to buy me a baitcaster rig that will throw 1/8-1/4 oz rigs efficiently. Please recommend a rod and reel setup. Also, with this particular setup, what line are you using ? Quote
CK14 Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Pflueger Supreme or trion with a BPS Extreme XPS rod 7' medium. i like to use McCoy mean green 8lb. Quote
JT Bagwell Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 I second the vote for the Pflueger Supreme (or the Pflueger President), but for my rod choice I would got with a 6'6" or 7" Medium All Star Platinum Series rod. Depends what kind of bait your are throwing as to what line. However, I fish a lot 1/8 and 1/4 oz jigs on a 6'10" All Star Pitchin' rod with 50 lb test PowerPro. JT Bagwell Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted January 20, 2007 Super User Posted January 20, 2007 I just added a set up this winter for the exact same purposes. Although I haven't caught a fish with it yet, I have been very pleased with the casting ability, weight, and sensitivity. I got a Shimano Scorpion 1000 Mg (Chronarch 50 Mg) paired with a St. Croix Legend Tourney Bass rod - 6'8" M power XF tip (TBC68MXF) I haven't quite decided on what pound line, but it's going to be Gamma Copolymer in either 6 or 8 lbs test Quote
