So for Xmas this year I got about $300 in gifts cards for Bass Pro. I want to either add to my rods with a new setup or replace a rod. Below are the 5 rods I carry on my kayak. I would also like to make sure what I am throwing on these rods and then I can determine what I want to get new or replace. What would you throw on each of these rods and what would you add or upgrade for Bass Fishing. Im fishing in Central Virginia not really catching anything big a lot maybe 5-6lbs. Thanks in advance.

Got a buddy that wants to kayak fish Douthat next weekend. I have not been there since i was a child. Can some of you recommend the best lures for Bass? Thanks in advance.

I want 1 crankbait rod that can throw most crankbaits. Square, shallow, deep etc..

Im looking for advice on a all around crankbait rod that will throw just about any crankbait. I do a lot of kayak fishing and want to stay in a 4 rod set up. I have 3 rods now and want a crankbait rod. What is a good all around crankbait that will throw most crankbaits? I have a few I am looking at one is the Phenix Crankbait Casting Rod Glass 7'0", other is the ST. Croix Mojo Bass Glass 7'2". Any othr suggestions or experience with either of these 2 rods would be great. Will prob pair the rod with the Abu Garcia Revo Winch. Thanks in advance!

I hear there is a road that was once where the lake is and that you can find it on sonar. Does anybody know where the road begins? I want to fish that spot this Thursday and want to get in general area and then can prob locate it on my Lowrance. Thanks

Hmm i think i actually have a Pflueger 35 on a rod im not using. Cant remember if its a Pres or a Supreme on rod im not using. With the price of $60 i could order 2 rods and use the reel i have. I need to replace a bait caster with a snapped tip. Hmmm might just order 2 Med Hvy rods

That exact reason i usually use a braid with a flouro or mono leader

Great to know. I have the St Croix spinning Mojo Yak rod. Been throwing neds with it. But wanted a dedicated texas rig rod. Thanks

Thanks, i have been looking at the Johnny Morris Carbonlite 2.0’s and was trying to decide between a 20 or 40 reel size. I have been researching and have read a lot of positives about this rod & reel

I have had a blast fishing Texas Rig this year and want a new rod. I am currently using an old KwikStick Rod and a Trion Reel. I want to upgrade. I am looking for a spinning Rod and Reel for under $200 from Bass Pro for fishing Texas Rig and Carolina Rigs. Where I fish there is not a lot of cover, I fish from a kayak along the bank and there are some limbs, and brush but nothing crazy. What rod and reel would you buy? Thanks

Looking to meet people to fish ponds with in the area. Also looking for ponds to fish in the area. I have a decent one I fish in C'ville after work. But looking to meet people and find some areas around Waynesboro and Stuarts Draft, Va

Looking to meet some for bass fishing in the evenings on weekdays. Been bass fishing a short while. Spent most of my life fly fishing for trout. Im 47 years old and want to meet up and fish with new people to gain knowledge and have fun. At the moment im a bank fisher but by spring look to have a fishing kayak.

Amazing I have been thinking of doing the same thing with my Olympus Tough.

To be honest, i have not done any fishing there. The reason is becaues I have never heard of anybody fishing there. I hear about people fishing a lot of places but not one time have I heard anybody say Shernado Lake and I have no idea why

Man I wish I was at the lake more. I would love to hook up with you. I am a newb and would love the teaching. I am usually only at the lake after my 6 year old plays her Softball game on Sat mornings. My in laws just put a camper up at HalesFord Harbour.
