If spinning: 6'3" Legend Tournament + Shimano Stradic 1000
If casting: 6'6" ML Carbonlite + Shimano Chronarch 50e
Lures: 4" Senkos for wacky and "weightless" TX, Yamamoto
Shad Shape Worms for drop shotting, and I might also add
a spinnerbait for the third as I'm working them in to my
repertoire again, with more success than before.

Exactly ^^^
Would definitely want to know where I was going first before I made a precise decision.
But if I had to pick something different from Catt see below:
- Mann's Baby 1-Minus or another crankbait like a Bandit Series 100, Bomber Square A 3/8oz., or a square bill
- Seibert Dredge Brush Jig 1/2oz. with a Baby Paca Craw trailer
- Either a Original Culprit worm 10" or a 8" Mann's Jelly worm

You are correct, I meant one of their other lines of spinnerbaits. Point is that a small spinnerbait, whether it's 1/8 or 3/16 or 1/4, can produce when other lures can't. My bad
cgolf reply :
Medium action spinning rod and a reel with 10lb fireline.
Lures 5" kalins grub, Rons Craw if have to choose one color and a tube in water red if had to choose a color. Both would be fished on slider heads. Bandit 100 and color would be Firetiger.
If not locked into the rigging, I would also use some heavier jigs to more effectively fish deep water with the grub and jig.

fishwizzard reply :
6' ML spinning rod, CI4+ 1000 reel, 15lb braid w/ 6 or 8lb floro leader. I know this would limit me a lot but I prefer wading streams to fishing big water and would rather go for numbers rather then size most days in any case.
For lures, it would be tough to pick;
1) Ned rig made from a half zlinker and a Gopher #2 1/16oz head.
2) Zoom Super Fluke on a 3/0 SkipGap hook
3) 1/6oz RoosterTail inline spinner

3. A spinnerbait

fishnkamp reply :
Powell Max 683CEF 6'8" mh xf with a Daiwa Tatula CT 6.3-1
My lures would be:
Reaction Innovation Skinny Dippers with belly weighted swimbait hooks Probably be Houdini, Sungill or White Trash
Kalin 5 inch Lunker Grubs on BPS Perfect Finesse Worm jigheads and my color would be Bluegill or Watermelon seed /red flake.
1/2 ounce Dirty Jigs swimjig in Dill Gill and a Rage tail grub or a Rage Tail dual tail menace grub.
I cab cover a lot of water with those baits.
If I had a choice of a forth it would be a spinnerbait.

What hooks do you use? I picked up a pack but have not found a hook among my collection that I love.
fishnkamp reply :
I fish the Little Dippers and Big dippers three ways depending on the water depth.
First I like the Gamakatsu® Spring-Lock Plastic Hooks, then the Gamakatsu® Weighted Spring Lock Hook and finally the

Cool, I have not tried any of those, I will pick some up. The action of the RI's is totally different from the Keitechs I normally use, so it will be interesting to see which the bass want more.
fishnkamp reply :
Keitech makes some good baits. They do have a different action. It is nice to try some of each. When my stripers enter the creeks in the fall ( they come in chasing alewife who winter in the creeks) we chase them with Redeye shads, Xcalibur regular and one knockers as well a Bill Lewis Rattle traps. It is the only time I end up with 4 rattletrap rods on deck at one time. The crazy rock can often lock into one sound and color and ignore the other ones. Tomorrow it will change, so go figure. Try it all and see what works that day.

The rod would be my 6.5 ugly stick medium heavy with my Shimano stradic.
The baits would be zoom salty super fluke ,GY 4 inch senko, both in watermelon seed,or watermelon red,but I'm really torn on the 3rd one.The traditional choice would be red shad 7.5 inch culprit worm.The more current choice would be zoom trick worms in watermelon red.
All t- rigged with a 3/0 wide gap hook,except the senko with a 1/0.
ibobpeb reply :
I'm a multispecies fisherman and with this setup I've caught salmon, steelhead, browns, lmb, smb, white bass, walleye, crappie, and many more.
+7' medium spinning rod.
+Reel that holds 100 yards 10 lb fluoro.
+3" to 4" fluke style plastic.
+darter jigheads and ball jigheads
+curly tail minnow plastic
+crankbaits that dive 5' to 15'
I've used every new shiny lure out there but those produce 90% of my catch.
