fishing user avatarJiggy With It reply : 

If you made a bet to go into a random lake blind, with only having 3 rods at your disposal, which ones would you take? What style fishing would you put your money on? 

 

 


fishing user avatargrampa1114 reply : 

Light plastics on light jig heads...(3" sluggos on 1/16 oz non-lead jig heads) only need 1 medium light spinning rod.


fishing user avatarOzark_Basser reply : 

7mhf jig rod, 7mf plastics rod, 7mhmf cranking rod


fishing user avatarWestern-Mass-Bass reply : 

My senkos, with light line

A jig on braid

A lipless on floro.

 

I really would be the most dependant on my senko


fishing user avatarBruce424 reply : 

Spinning rod. 7ft med.

Squarebill rod 6'6"medheavy.

Jig rod 7ft. Medheavy.

Put money on beating the bank cover with the squarebill or jig. Maybe go off shore a bit with a carolina rig. I feel I can fish any style or any lake with these rods.


fishing user avatarBen Eipert reply : 

7'10 jig and tube rod- medium, 7'6 flippin stick-heavy, 7'2 finesse spinning rod- med light extra fast. Tubes, shakey heads, dropshot, and jigs!


fishing user avatarlong island basser reply : 

I'd bring my:

7'2" mh/xf for jigs,hollow body frogs, weighted plastics.

7' mh/mf for squarebill cranks and soft plastics.

6'9" mh/f for spinnerbaits and small swimbaits.

Going in blind I'd pound any and all shallow water cover I can find.

fishing user avatarpapajoe222 reply : 

In the spring (pre-spawn), my choices would be a jerk-bait, lipless crankbait/spinnerbait and a jig. Using the same rods during post spawn through fall, A tube jig/stick worm, crankbait/topwater and a jig. In the fall it would be a soft plastic jerk bait/tube jig, spinnerbait/buzzbait and a jig.  There was a time back in the day when I only used one rod, but as my selection of baits and presentations grew, I found it easier and more beneficial to have my gear a little better matched.

Blind?

 

I guess the first rod would be a white one with a red tip!  Almost sure that neither of the others would have a bobber.

Shimano Crucial 7'0 with a shakey head, Helios with a worm or a light craw, and gotta take something for a spinnerbait probably a st Croix med action 7+ footer.  But come on who only takes 3 rods?!?!?


fishing user avatarhoosierhawghunter reply : 

1 7'3" MH/f jigs and plastics

1 7' M/M for cranking

1 7' M/F for finesse


fishing user avatarFishinthefish reply : 

My three st croix rods. Ml fast m fast and mh extra fast. Soft plastics, jigs, anything with a treble hook. Depending on the time of yeary bet would be on soft plastics. First worms, then flukes and finally craw fish. I bump or sink worms. Swim and jerk flukes doodle craw fish. That would be the three techniques I would bet you can catch fish on any water on this country with if I had to choose one setup to use.


fishing user avatarThe Next KVD reply : 

7'MHF St.Croix Avid for all my bottom contact baits and some moving baits, a 7'MHM St.Croix Avid for cranks, and a 6'10ML St.Croix Legend spinning rod for finesse work.
