You can efficiently fish from the bank with a bait caster I bring 2 rods when I fish from the bank one baitcaster and one spinning I use the baitcaster for everything but finesse techniques good luck can I ask what baitcaster you got? Good luck Tight lines Andrew

Stuck On 3 Lb'ers
X2 on both of the posts be happy with catching good bass like that, a lot of us have a problem not catching good three pounders on a regular basis. also a swimbait in an odd color that bass have never seen before can trick the big ones to bite, bubblegum catches good bass for me good luck.

Summer Bass Are Kicking My Butt - Help!
find a hot pink or bubble gum swimbait and rig it on a chartreuse painted 1/2 ounce jig head and cast into the bank and retrieve it slowly above the bottom sometimes having something the bass have never seen before is enough to trigger them into striking that is how i have been catching them lately. good luck

Well It Happened To Me Finally.....hooked Past The Barb (No Pics)

Braid.. Which Kind?
I personally like power pro it casts very well with the setup I'm using. I think you will be fine with 832 also after reading all the good reviews on it I may need to try it. Good luck. Tight lines Andrew

Which Baitcaster?
I have one in 7:1:1 ratio mounted on a m/h fast action BPS pro qualifier rod with 40# power pro braid I use it for topwater and squarebills the next is a 6:4:1 this is generally an all around ratio it sits sometimes because I don't have a rod for it has 15 pound mono on it the next is a 5:2:1 mounted on a m/h fast action St Croix mojo bass rod It has 40# power pro I use it for spinners buzzbaits il swap out the 6:4:1 if I'm expecting a buzzbait bite or I just use the 7:1:1 with it this is probably the most versatile set up the last one is a 4:7:1 It has 15 pound mono and is mounted on a 7'8 m/h moderate action St Croix mojo bass rod I use it for all of my cranks and traps besides square bills. I have a tendency to crank fast which is why my spinner and crankbait reels are slower than most the pro qualifier is an awesome reel. The PQ has a DBS which is dual braking system which works very well it has a star drag that clicks when you adjust it. If your willing to spend about 20 dollars more( depending on when your looking to buy a PQ) I recomend stepping up to a lew's tournament mg. That is my work horse reel it has all the "clickies" on it and you won't be dissapointed with it. Hope this helps with your decision. PM me if you have any more questions. Tight lines Andrew

Vendetta Frog Rod
If it is going to be a dedicated frog rod I would go 7'3 heavy if you fish a lot of slop if not you should be able to get by with a M/H. Tight lines
