Two Rigs Only 2024

roadwarrior reply :

If you were restricted to two rigs only, what would they be?

(Not necessarily "dream" stuff, but what you have or plan to get sometime soon.)

Rod?

Reel?

Line?

Okay, you get to chose five lures, too.

(This can be multiple baits, i.e., if you pick plastics worms you get more than one.)

.ghoti. reply :

I'll go with stuff I have, and not "dream" outfits.

#1. Daiwa L&T rod 6'3" MH, Daiwa Millionaire reel, 10lb XL line

#2 JM Sig Series rod 7' MH, Quantum Energy PT reel, 12lb Transition line

lure 1 - 5" Senko

lure 2 - Fat Ika

lure 3 - 10" Power Worm

lure 4 - Zoom tube

lure 5 - 1/4oz white/chart willow spinnerbait

I guess we know how I like to fish, now don't we.

Alpster reply :

I wonder how many will not be able to stop with 2.

Here's mine, and I'm blessed to actually have my dream rigs.

Rig 1- G-Loomis MBR843C GLX rod with Shimano Calcutta TE200DC Reel

Rig 2- Custom wrapped Lamiglas XC66MH 5'6" pitchin stick with Shimano Calais CL200

both spooled with Power Pro 50lb

Bait 1- Culprit black shad worm

Bait 2- Arkie Jig w Uncle Josh black widow eel trailer

Bait 3- 5" Yamasenko june bug

Bait 4- Terminator Titanium Buzzbait

Bait 5- Rapala FS9 original floater

I kept to the rules and only listed what I was allowed. I am always dissapointed when some one starts a thread with 'you can only choose 1' and half of the replys are everything they own or a dozen different options. My challenge is for everyone to stick to Roadwarrior's original topic. See if you can, I think it will be fun.

You fellas play waaaaaaaay out of my price range.....

I hear you there SPEEDBEAD some of these rigs make me gasp too but I quit smoking a year ago.... I bought my MG50 a week before my one year anniversary of quitting smoking... if I was still smoking there is NO WAY I would be able to afford 500 bucks for a rig... its a matter of priorities Yes I have some nice rigs but I didn't buy them all at once... one here and one there... I have been very blessed to be able to compile a collection of equipment over this last year... now I am at a point to where I don't HAVE to get something for a technique.. now its a matter of the baitmonkey whispering in my ear...

but having said that... its AWSOME to see what other folks thing their two rigs are or would be... I am pleased to see I am not far off on my decision to get what I have...

jayhawkfishin reply :

If you could only have two rods and reels for the rest of you life you are going to want something you enjoy and will last. I don't own what i said, but if I had to sell all my stuff I would take that money and buy those rods and reels.

If i had to fish with only two rods and two reels i want the best two rods and the two best reels. imo.

Casting: 7' MH BPS Extreme w/ Diawa procaster spooled with 20lb spiderwire stealth braid

Lures:

Zoom super fluke in babybass

1/4 oz booyah green pumpkin jig w/green pumpkin yum craw bug trailer

7" red shad culprit worm, w 1/8 bullet sinker

Plus a pack of gamakatsu 3/0 EWG hooks.

I do use cranks,spinnerbaits, topwaters, and jerkbaits alot too, but these baits produce year round for me, so thats what I would take.
