 Continued...Oh boy one of my favorites: The "Spinnerbait" rod. Now the spinnerbait rod is a six foot composite blank in either spinning or casting, although casting is preferred. The rod should have moderate action with meduim power. Anyone out there doing any smallmouth fishing? Well here's a rod for you: The "Grub" rod. Now the Grub rod is a six foot long graphite blank and uses a spinning reel. It has fast action and meduim power. How about the "Finesse" rod? This is a High Modulus IM6 type blank. It's a six foot long spinning rod with moderate to fast action and light to medium light power. This rod is for when the bite is light and you're using those great four inch worms from Charlie Brewer or maybe Don Iovino. And last but by no means least is the "Worm" rod. Now the worm rod is 100% graphite. It can be either spinning or casting, five foot eight inches to six foot six inches with a fast action and light to medium power. So there you are. Now when you go looking for that new fishing rod at least you will know what to look for in a rod. Now these are not trade secrets that I am giving away. But rather knowledge, the knowledge that every bassfisherman, or woman should possess. But after all, the fishing rod is nothing more than an extension of your arm. It is a tool, and given the proper tools it will make you a better fisherman. By D.
