Mr Jenkins Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Just what the message says throw in your points and views. Getting ready to make a purchase lets see how close you guys come in on what ive decided to buy!!!! Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 5, 2010 Super User Posted January 5, 2010 This is what I use: For everything 1/2 oz and under: St. Croix Avid AVC70MF For heavier spinnerbaits: St. Croix Legend Elite 70MHF 8-) Quote
Skunked in DR Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Loomis SBR 813 - for the 1/2 oz and 3/4 oz spinnerbaits I like to throw it's absolutely perfect. Quote
Super User Catt Posted January 5, 2010 Super User Posted January 5, 2010 In search of the perfect spinnerbait rod You'll find it in my rod box Quote
Buzbait88 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 6'6" or 7' medium fast action. I like the 7 citrus stick for this, but they don't carry a 6'6" model yet, so I use a falcon. Not sure the model but its 6'6" medium fast. I generaly fish smaller spinnerbaits, 3/8 or less, but usually around a 1/4 so these rods are perfect. Quote
ToledoEF Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I have two, a 6'10'' shimano claurus MH and a 7' Bps Crankin stick MH! Funny thing is that mh crankin stick works pretty good! Quote
steezy Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Shimano Cumara 7' Med or G.Loomis GLX 7' Med Quote
Super User J Francho Posted January 5, 2010 Super User Posted January 5, 2010 I don't think you need the "perfect spinnerbait rod" to throw spinnerbaits, but I also think it depends on what you like to throw, and where. I toss smaller baits with an Avid AVC62MXF, in a style I would call "sniper spinnerbaiting," targeting small holes in weeds, dock pilings, and other cover. For most other spinnerbait work, like burning and slow rolling, A St. Croix LTB70MF works fine. For stroking truly huge and heavy spinnerbaits, an Avid AVC70MHF works great. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I use a 6' Medium/Heavy Fast action that I built. I like the shorter rod for accuracy and low, under hand casts for a quiet entry. Quote
Uncle Leo Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Power Tackle Paragon 6' 10" MH MF. I use this for 3/8-3/4 spinnerbaits. Works for me. Also doubles as a deep cranking rod when needed. Quote
brushhoggin Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 falcon bucoo 7' MH is what i use and i consider it perfect for spinnerbaits, very affordable quality rod Quote
Super User Fishes in trees Posted January 5, 2010 Super User Posted January 5, 2010 I like the All Star 6'8" IM 10 Zell Rowland spinnerbait rod. I don't remember the number. I have several of them. Quote
fathom Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 mbr783 imx. of all the things it likes to do, it seems to like doing blades the best. Quote
21farms Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 defining the perfect rod for spinnerbaits is much harder than for other techniques where preferences are more universal. for spinnerbaits, some fishermen like 'em with mod actions, some like 'em fast and some like 'em extra fast. personally, i think the g.loomis SBR-813C spinnerbait rod is perfect for me...it is rated as extra-fast but it feel more like a fast to me. i want the tip to flex enough for the bass to inhale the spinnerbait but stiff enough for me to get a immediate hookset.

Bronzefly Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 One perfect spinnerbait rod would be very tough... I toss spinnerbaits from 1/4 oz. to 2oz. and use several different rods. Overall though, for most 3/8 to 1/2 oz spinnerbaits, I'm a big fan of the MBR 783 GLX or the MBR 843 GLX... Quote
Mr Jenkins Posted January 6, 2010 Author Posted January 6, 2010 guys i appreciate all the info i guess i shoulda mentioned to that i was just wanting a fan caster something for quick accurate throws , I kow some of the rods some of you guys mentioned are way to long-large for that application but nonetheless i appreciate all the comments Quote
