FrogTosser88 reply :

Funny thing about that is.... Since I started fishing.. The 29.99 shakespear on an ugly stick from wallmart. Fishing a bobber and a worm (night crawler)... has caught me more fish than anything else.. Including a 5lb largemouth... which until last month was my largest bass...... so go figure

Now that I "know what I'm doing".. I have more confidence fishing a fluke on a med spinning reel setup than anything else..

Just got a baitcaster as an early Fathers Day gift and I'm practicing

A combo that I want is either a NRX854 or MBR844GLX and an Antares HG for T-Rigs.

jason41987 reply :

my abu garcia ambassadeur 5600C4 is my all purpose reel, add some inline weights onto the leaders and smaller stuff can be casted.. i use a medium heavy rod now but to be honest i would drop it down a power or to as 99% of what i catch doesnt require a medium heavy

Tywithay reply :

Antares HG on Orochi XX Extreme Mission....any technique, basically. I can pitch a 1/8oz microjig or cast a 3/4oz spinnerbait with this combo, without even adjusting the brakes.

Frenchman83 reply :

Lews Tournament Pro 7.1 on a 7'1" MH *** Black with 40# PowerPro. Fish bottom jigs, swimjigs, chatterbaits, frogs, buzz baits.

Arv reply :

One tactic... I don't have the rod now but I'd probably throw senkos on a dx 743c Haha. I guess I'd just keep my lews tp in it. Line, braid to fc leader.

That would depend on where I was fishing........but I never understand why these "If you could only have one....." posts come up a couple times a month. I doubt any of us would actually limit ourselves to 'one' of anything.

I agree. A 7' MXF rod and a 6.something baitcast reel with a 26-28 IPT and 12# FC would work for most of my fishing. On some lakes it would not work so well though...

Don't know why I'd want to, that would be limiting myself. Even if I only targeted 1 species on one body of water, the vegetation isn't the same ever day.

I'll play along and this I have done quite a few times. Fishing a mh 7' spinning rod with a 4000 reel using 20# braid and 1/2 oz hair jig I'll start off fishing a sea wall for snook and juvenile tarpon. At sunrise move over to the beach and fish for jack crevelles and bluefish. Leave the ocean and head inland, stop by a pond and do some peacock fishing, then hit a canal for LMB. I actually did all of that this morning, but I had 3 rods and changed lures.

Raul reply :

I own a boat but that doesn´t mean every single time I go out I fish from it, on the contrary, most of the times I fish from shore and I carry only one setup:

GLoomis SJR782 rod

Shimano Sahara 2500 FB or Daiwa Exceler 2000 TSH reel

With that I can fish practically everything with the exception of the heavy weight baits.

Fish Murderer 71 reply :

7.1/8.0:1 MH/F WITH 15# ABRAZX - I can throw almost any plastic or jig or jerkbait or live bait.

OntarioFishingGuy reply :

Avid 7' ML spinning rod w/ Daiwa Ballistic 2500 spinning reel and 8lb Fireline braid. Dropshot, and light shaky head.

RippinLips4 reply :

Evergreen rod

daiwa Steez reel

timsford reply :

6'10" spinning rod with 2500 size reel. 10 lb trilene xl and 1/8 ounce weight and 1/0 wide gap hook with a small creature bait. My favorite is the 3 inch yum wooly hawgtail in black and blue. I hardly ever get skunked fishing this setup and ive caught 20 lb limits fishing from the back of my cousins boat and he fished from the front with power techniques and never got a bite. O fish it slow and shake it like a shaky head

olegs reply :
