wde1063 Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 What length and action rod should i get for topwaters like spooks poppers and buzzbaits Quote
Super User BASSclary Posted April 17, 2011 Super User Posted April 17, 2011 6'3" M/XF. If your dealing with heavier lures though, look for a MH/XF Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted April 17, 2011 Super User Posted April 17, 2011 I use a 6'6" mh/f. But thats just me. Jeff Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 17, 2011 Global Moderator Posted April 17, 2011 I'd suggest different rods for poppers and spooks than I would buzzbaits. I like a longer stiffer rod for buzzbaits to fish them through cover and pull big fish out of the woods. I use a 7ft M/H for buzzbaits and a 6' 2" medium for poppers and spooks, makes it easier to snap the rod without wearing myself out with that short light rod. Quote
OHIO Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I agree with Bluebasser. I use my spinnerbait rod for buzzbaits and my crankin rod for spooks and poppers. I like a stiffer rod for buzzbaits and a more mellow rod for all treble hook baits. Quote
baluga Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 What BassClary said! Plus a balance light weight rod around 3.5oz or less would make it easy on the wrist when working the walk-the-dog. Quote
