New Rod - Fenwick Smallmouth
hmm well the other options are all MH pretty much.. which i dont like as much the crankbaits i usually troll and cast with is 7/16 oz and the smaller size is 1/4 oz so i think those are fine and for spinnerbaits i usually only use the 3/8 oz ones really

New Rod - Fenwick Smallmouth
thanks for the replies what do you all consider light spinnerbaits and cranks? i think the heaviest ones i use are half an ounce, will those be okay for this rod?
