A 7' medium heavy fast action will cover jigs t-rig pretty much anything you throw at it and a 7' medium moderate for treble hook baits would be my choice of two rods then a 6'10 medium x-fast for anything I need a spinning rod for tight lines Andrew

I've been using a 7' m moderate St Croix Avid with 40# braid it casts very well and has the backbone to move figs with the braid. I really like it but It is out of your price range so I might look into a premier. Tight lines Andrew

Baccarac (I think that's how you spell it) on a crankbait Tight lines Andrew

The buff covers your full face though while the neck flap only covers your neck tight lines Andrew

I'm 17 and have now started fishing in long sleeve shirts and wear a sun buff and love it. It keeps me so much cooler than without it and now I dont see myself fishing without it. I figure its better to start now rather than have problems later. tight lines Andrew

I started out in a fiberglass rig and didn't notice any real sharp learning curve after being out in it a few times we were able to get it all the way up to WOT. It honestly depends on the type of boat you want Tight lines Andrew

I use the rapala digital 50 lb one with no problems. Just hook them in the gill plate Tight lines Andrew

The website that I buy quality stuff is here lol. It's much cheaper to buy some lots here than to pay individual price online. If i do buy other than here it's tackle warehouse Tight lines Andrew

Give it a try it is an awesome technique that I am just starting to get used to doing and is becoming one of the staple rods in my arsenal. Also don't be afraid to throw it in stained water. It still works and it catches good fish too lol Tight lines Andrew

Strike king baits from kvd 1.0 up to 6xd. Storm wiggle warts and arashi and recently found rapala in the dt6 Tight lines Andrew

Whatever lure a new personal best bass bites tight lines Andrew

fiberglass is a smoother ride and you have to be more careful about where you go with it. Aluminum you can take in places that fiberglass dont normally go and don't have to worry about scratching the fiberglass. I have a fiberglass Stratos 273 vindicator that is in the 17 foot class that fits 3 fishing barely if your going to have 4 fishing you are probably gonna want to be on the bigger side. Also what size motor are you thinking as Trackers are notorious for being underpowered. tight lines Andrew

What do you plan on doing with the boat? just fish or something more? Need a little more info and aluminum or fiberglass? tight lines Andrew

St croix mojo bass 7'9 heavy fast the cheaper little brother to the one j Franco is talking about Tight lines Andrew

You can never be too sure lol . I use braid in 10# on my spinning set ups and 40 and 50# tests on my baitcaster set ups. Will be getting some 65# for my swimbait stick soon tight lines Andrew

6'10 ml x fast St Croix rage Shimano sahara 2500 10# power pro 8 or 10# fluorocarbon either gammy #1 drop shot hook or vmc spinshot weight varies from 1/8 to 1/2 ounce. I will drop it straight down and twitch it over fish. or cast and drag it back to the boat pausing occasionally tight lines Andrew

I use the Alberto on my senko rod which is a ST croix rage which has pacbay micro guides and I have no problems. And if you havnt used them let me tell you they are small Tight lines Andrew

Generally when crankbait fishing they hook themselves so an exposed blank is not essential to feel them. An extra guide shouldn't do anything what rods are you looking at? Which rods are you looking at? Tight lines Andrew

Go with the avid I have both and the avid is much more sensitive especially with braid Tight lines Andrew

Almost lost my St Croix LTB lew's combo earlier this year in a tournament. I was pitching a jig along a wall on the infamous Lake One fish Anna and as I was swinging the jig like I always do my rod flies out of my hand in 20 foot of water. I hit the deck as fast as humanly possible and by shoving my arm up to my shoulder into the water was able to grab the butt of the rod. Talk about relief lol turns out I had not pushed the button to free the spool lol talk about feeling stupid I did end up winning the tourney with ONE 5 pound largemouth. I guess the lake lives up to its name lol tight lines Andrew

I dint remember my first bass but the first bass I remember was on a Fly rod (grew up fly fishing then transferred over to bass tackle once I got into tournaments) on a big popper and he just demolished it ended up being about three pounds. I remember my first tournament fish. A 12 inch dink that barely kept on legendary ONE FISH ANNA caught on a shaky head on a borrowed St croix Avid. I blame my friend who fishes full time and now is one of the hosts of the Show Angling Virginia for this addiction lol Tight lines Andrew

Thanks a ton guys leave in the Am I will post up pics if I get anything worth talking about lol thanks again Tight lines Andrew

I have made catfish rigs like that but never thought of doing that for bass. I'm going to have to try that Tight lines Andrew

Chartreuse black back sexy shad and bluegill are all you truly need you can cover most water colors with......sorry BAIT MONKEY. That's what I would pick it all depends on forage also Tight lines Andrew
