Mojo bass 6'8 whacky spinning rod
Since I always get well informed answers on here thought I'd try again I'm on the hunt for a new spinning rod for light tw light Texas rigs 1/8oz weights etc and other finesse applications for skinny Creek and river sm I was looking at the mojo bass 6'8 m/xf and was wondering if I could use that not only for the whacky rig as listed but also the presentation I mentioned above or would the 6'10 ml be better choice I held the rods and they felt pretty good with the stradic fk 2500 I have

New spinning rod for river/Creek sm
I usually use medium action and have a 7ft carbonlite but the new series just aren't the same and I fish the Susquehanna so that sums. It is. Nicely and there's been multiple times I've hooked into. Musky believe it or. Not but I went to fs website and Sadly they're full. Price I'm gonna go to the store and hopefully get lucky cause the length power and action to me sounds perfect for what I want. To. Use it fkr

Lithia area Florida pond fishing
So I'm from up in PA and I'm no stranger to both lm and sm but I have a few questions about bass fishing in lithia area u was down in summer and didn't bring all my gear but brought top water swim baits soft plastics etc and long story short maybe it was ponds maybe me but no matter what I threw I didn't get a bite even in diff colors I'm going back down in Florida so my question is where is goos fishing around there (I heard Lakeland so trying there) but was curious about closer areas around lithia and what styles of baits and colors seem to work the best for that area cause I'm shopping all my gear down and making a trip to bass pro while I'm there if I need to grab anything else
