SuthernHaze Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 I want yalls opinions on what to put on these rods for the setups. I have reels in mind but want to see what everyone else would say. Please indicate the reel ratio. Jig/Worm/Spinnerbait: Powell Max 733C (7'3'' MH EF) Crankbait/Jerkbait/Top Water: Powell Max 684CB (6'8'' M MF) Quote
Triton21 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Jig/Worm/Spinnerbait: Powell Max 733C (7'3'' MH EF) Revo STX HS Crankbait/Jerkbait/Top Water: Powell Max 684CB (6'8'' M MF) Revo Winch Quote
Super User Micro Posted March 26, 2009 Super User Posted March 26, 2009 Daiwa Zillion 100HA (6.3:1) on both. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 26, 2009 Super User Posted March 26, 2009 Gotta state a price to get pertinent advice, but here's a start: Shimano Citica CI200E, CH50MG, Curado CU200E7 or Core 8-) Quote
SuthernHaze Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 haha sorry i shoulda put the price like RW said ... i want to stay under or at 300 dollars per reel Quote
SuthernHaze Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 one more thing is that on the jig/worm set up i do not even own a jig ove 1/2 and the lightest is a 1/8oz sinnker,hook,and 6 inch worm (whatever that weighs) Quote
21farms Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 for the powell 733C, mount a curado E7. besides being my favorite overall reel in terms of castability, handling, smoothness, etc., the green color of the reel matches perfectly with the green accents on your rod. i have the powell 703C and paired with an E7, it is sweet. a reel for your powell 684CB is tougher. i like a 5:1 ratio reel for all of my crankin' but i think 7:1 is much better for jerkbaits and topwater. perhaps a 6:1 reel would be the best choice here: either a daiwa fuego or a shimano citica E200. for me, my fiberglass powell CBs are much more comfortable with a really low profile reel because the reel seat is kinda thick which is why i recommended the fuego and citica and not a chronarch 50MG.

SuthernHaze Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 ok so far here is what ive been suggested jig/worm/spinnerbait - curado e7, revo stx-hs, zillion crank/jerk/top - curado e5, winch, zillion keep the suggestions coming please Quote
Super User retiredbosn Posted March 27, 2009 Super User Posted March 27, 2009 set up one Abu Garcia EXT Pro 6:5:1 set up two still looking for mine, thought I found it but when I changed the gears out the spool sizes weren't the same. Probably will end up with a Revo Winch, although I am really infatuated with round reels right now and may find a EXT 5600 for that set up. Quote
Super User Chris at Tech Posted March 27, 2009 Super User Posted March 27, 2009 Revo STX on both Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted March 27, 2009 Super User Posted March 27, 2009 Pflueger Patriarch 64LP Worm/jig Quantum Energy E100PPT cranks Quote

If you can find the CH50MG for around $165, there's nothin' to talk about. Buy two and be happy. 8-) Quote
JohnMac Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 for the cranking set up id go with a zillion crazy cranker and for the jig and worm set up u gotta go with the CH50MG Quote
Bayou Bass Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I have those exact rods, what are the odds ;D ;D I have the citica 200e on both of them. Talk about some great rods!! Quote
