Bayou44 Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Looking through my spare rods I came across an Allstar 7ft spinning medium/moderate rod. I have never found a use for this limber rod. Any suggestions? Weightless plastics, shallow cranks, light topwater? Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted July 16, 2011 Super User Posted July 16, 2011 Shallow cranks for the best results. Quote
Super User skunked_again Posted July 16, 2011 Super User Posted July 16, 2011 Shallow cranks for the best results. this, shaky head and a weightless worm.....drop shot....lighter spinner baits. just keep in mind that if you use the rod for single hook application you will want to use small gauge hooks.

Bayou44 Posted July 16, 2011 Author Posted July 16, 2011 Thanks for the help. For this limber rod what type line is preferred for shallow cranks and weightless plastic? Quote

Super User Grey Wolf Posted July 17, 2011 Super User Posted July 17, 2011 Perfect rod for braid. X2. Quote
dude loves to fish Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 Good rod for Shallow cranks. Braid and/or 100% fluro. Quote
detroit1 Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 I love that rod. I've had mine for about 8 years now. Mine is moderate also, but it has decent backbone. Like skunked said, use fine wire hooks and jigheads. Good rod for about any bait to a 1/2 oz. I use 8# xl with mine... Quote
ToledoEF Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 I have 832 15/4 braid on a 6'9 ml/mf spinning rod I use for dropshot and small cranks in lakes and rivers for smallmouth and largemouth it works great. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted July 19, 2011 Super User Posted July 19, 2011 I used to have a Team All Star M/Mod 7' spinner. It was a great rod for dragging tubes in Lake O. for smallies. The moderate bend kept constant pressure on the erratic fish, and kept the jig pinned. Quote
