josh1.9 Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 hey all, i'm looking to buy my first baitcasting setup. I mostly fish for LM bass with texas rigs, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits but I also fish for pike with 1 oz spoons on occasion, so I'm looking for something pretty versatile. I've been reading a lot of reviews and I'm considering getting a Daiwa Tierra and matching it with a 7' mh berkley lightning or lightning shock rod. Does this setup make sense? Any other suggestions in the same price range? Any input would be greatly appreciated, thanks Quote
Super User J Francho Posted July 13, 2011 Super User Posted July 13, 2011 Not my 1st choice in rods, but that combo will work. I have that rod, and for a few more bucks there is much better out there. Think Saint Croix Premier, Abu Vendetta, Falcon Buccoo, etc. Huge leap in sensitivity when you jump to that $80 to $100 range in rods. Quote

X2 and there are better offerings from Cabelas like the Prodigy which is right at the $100 price point Quote
