Swimming Shad Up To Small Plastic Swimbait Rod
I have a 6"10 compre for weightless flukes and caffeine shad. but lately I want to get into small swimbaits, like swimmin caffeine shads, the berkly plastic baits with the jig head already in bait. Also really loving that new rib shad. thinking a MH premier. I figure a descent weighted rib shad is around 3/4 oz. Also this is a reaction bait right, was having a convo at academy with a dude that said all plastics were in need a good sensitive rod. I figure with these type baits, you gotta cross their eyes

Preventing Rod Breakage - Best Practices ?
my first over 30 dollar rod, was a mojo, bought it at dicks, thank God with a warranty. next day snapped 6 in off by parking on a hill and door flying back, none since then, if I buy a nice rod, I usually do over counter no hassal warranty as well

How Much Braid?
i always have some backing on braid, but just the normal amount so it wont slip. braid close to the spool wont go bad, on fluro, since I am no 100% a fan and I heard the if you spool it all the way you waste a lot, I maybe 75 yds, oh wait sorry went a bit OT

Shimano And Price Drop
seems the Gs price went almost through the floor but the Es are still pricey. With the new CI4 when will the Es somewhat go down. I Know they are good but I was just wondering as the E207 is still 200.00 vs the new CI4 that my dicks for some reason has on sale for like 245.00

Good For All Topwater Hardbaits
not really dead set, just a got lure rating a litle over an ounce, full handle, and I hear dobyns alot. my sellus is a MHXF 6'8 and even holding a ounce rating, it it s a hella bend on rod for a 3/4 spook. may look at a loomis,but hate to pay that much for a rod that well, doesn't really need to be that sensitive
-
Good For All Topwater Hardbaits
sorry been looking at so many rods, thought it was 6'8 so you like the XF, but your saying it would be good for what I wanna do, I only 3 1/4 oz anyway and use a 6'6 spinning if i do use them, most of my stuff is 3/8, 1/2 and even a few 3/4
-
Good For All Topwater Hardbaits
tire of my shimano sellus and want a full cork handled rod. Looking at the Dobyns champ crank 6'10 MH mod fast.685. I have always been told Fast or XH for topwater but figure the same principal applies to tops as is does for cranks, gives it time for the fish to pop bait under water so you wont miss. Any way got a good lure rating. Whats your opinions on it? Will be using spooks, gunfish, poppers and devils horses
