basser223 Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I have been bass fishing for 2 years so im fairly new and working at being better by first getting the right rod setups I have this but dont know what to do with it What would be the best use for a 7 and a half foot medium action casting rod and a 6:1.1 okuma baitcast reel. If you could tell me a good use for this and what kind of line to use I would greatly appreciate it. Quote
Super User skunked_again Posted March 14, 2010 Super User Posted March 14, 2010 the brand and model of the rod would help. lure/line weight and such. Quote

backpain... Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I had two of them before recently passing them on to a younger fisherman. I would use them for anything from flukes and weightless senkos to finesse jigs and spinnerbaits. That is a perfect utility rod in my opinion. Quote
owl Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I have a new one.Good rod for the money. I have a Quantum Accurist on it. Ive been using for chatter bait,buzz bait and spinner baits. Works well with swim baits. Little too stiff for top water. okay fr worms and lizards. good general purpose rod. Quote
