  1. What differentiates the SV spool from a standard spool?
  2. Med are better suited for weightless trigs and crankbaits/lipless.
  3. MH if you have any intention of using for jigs.
  4. Crappie jigs maybe. Jig fishing in Florida the least I would use is a 6'6" MH. ML rods would be better suited for finesse baits and drop shotting in super clear water and very light line.
  5. DFGG68MH-C — 6’8” length - 10-14 pound test line - 1/8-5/8 ounce lures - fast action - medium heavy power rating. Comments: Balances perfectly with 12-pound line and 3/8-ounce jigs, 6” worms and medium-sized topwaters. Moves big fish with surprising ease and still feels like a feather in your hand. May be the best all-around rod of the bunch. DFGG610M-C — 6’10” length – 8-14 pound test line - 3/16-5/8 ounce lures -fast action – medium power rating Comments: Smaller worms and jigs, grubs, spinnerbaits and topwater baits. An excellent 10-12 pound line rod for lighter duty, clear water applications. Nice soft tip for casting smaller, light baits, but has surprising power the hook set. DFGG70MH-C — 7’0” length – 12-17-pound line - 3/16-5/8 ounce lures - fast action - medium-heavy power rating Comments: A really well balanced worm rod for 10-25 feet of water applications. We used it in open-water situations where the cover isn’t too thick, but this rod will surprise you when you need to put the pressure on even a big bass. The fast action makes this an accurate caster and a good choice for medium sized baits. DFGG73MH-C — 7’3” length – 12-17-pound line - 3/16-5/8 ounce lures - fast action - medium-heavy power rating Comments:: A nice, fast tip with a powerful backbone makes this rod a perfect choice for fishing Texas/Carolina rigs and small jigs, especially in clear water when you need longer casts and more leverage for a long range hookset. This is going to be an awesome buzzbait rod. DFGG73H-C — 7’3” length - 14-20-pound Co-Ploy, Fluorocarbon line - 5/16-3/4 ounce lures - fast action - heavy power rating Comments: A very effective deep-water jig rod for fishing in relatively heavy cover. Has the power to move a fish out from under a dock or from thick grass to the boat now, yet it won’t wear you out and you can fish with it all day long… no sore muscles, no fatigue, no problem. DFGG76XH-C — 7’6” length - 14-20-pound Co-Ploy, Fluorocarbon line and 50 pond test braid - 5/16-3/4 ounce lures – extra fast action – extra heavy power rating Comments: Extremely effective heavy cover rod; also works well with an umbrella rig. We primarily used this rod while flipping “Duck Weed or Primrose” with braid. This rod will ****** the biggest of fish out of the heaviest of cover before it realizes it’s in the boat. With more and more anglers becoming confident using and finding success with crank baits, the Duckett has addressed this technique with two rods. The Medium power 7-foot-0-inch model is designed to fish smaller lightweight crankbaits and jerk-baits, while the 7-foot-6-inch Medium Heavy model with its extra fast action other crankin’ applications. Crankin’ Rods DFGG70M-CC — 7’0” length - 8-12 pound line - 3/16-5/8 ounce lures - moderate action - medium power rating Comments: Casting a soft jerkbait, weighted only by the size of hook you use, requires a very responsive rod tip; this is the rod for it. Very effective when we used small crankbaits and jerkbaits such as shad raps and flukes. DFGG76MH-CC — 7’6” length – 8-12 pound line - 5/16-3/4 ounce lures - fast action – medium heavy power rating Comments: This crankbait rod is the best choice when you fish in the timber or around thicker vegetation. It has plenty of backbone to for handling heavy weights and big bass in deep water. Oh yea… it handles larger baits too! Spinning reel fans were not left out in the cold, asDuckettintroduces two 6-foot-9-inch medium heavy models is intended for lighter lines, clear water and smaller baits, and a 7-foot-0-inch medium rod for deep-water light line/small bait fishing. Spinning Rods DFGG69MH-S — 6’9” length - 6-12 pound line - 1/8-5/16 ounce lures - fast action - medium-heavy power rating Comments: Small worm/jighead combos, 2-5” grubs, small topwaters, little jigs, gin-clear water, just enough wind to make casting tough and finicky bass. Ultra-sensitive spinning rod great for finesse fishing. DFGG70M-S — 7’0” length - 6-12 pound line - 1/8-3/8 ounce lures -fast action - medium power rating Comments: The perfect solution for deep-water fishing where small baits and light line are a must to be successful. The fast tip allows you to cast un-weighted worms and soft jerkbaits a long ways with enough power to drive the hook home and pull the fish away from trouble.
  6. I don't know this line at all. What's the big deal with the SV spool?
  7. Lesson to all shimano owners... Keep them dry!!!!
  8. i definitely see your reasoning. I think however the small amount of ripped hook sets you may have will give way to the amount of larger fish you can land due to the ZERO give turning the head of a large bass and heading in the direction of the boat.
  9. If the majority of people are using a certain rod there must be a reason..... I'm all for being different and using different techniques. To each his own.
  10. You should try the poppa pit boss!!!
  11. Is that why??? He may get more info if someone knows where he's speaking about. If it was that secretive then he should have blacked out everything.
  12. Try the biospawn vile craws.
  13. Could have tried a buzz bait. The extra surface commotion could have sparked their interest.
  14. Or take a pill and keep going.... Lololol
  15. Are jigs your favorite bait? Or are they just consistent fish catchers for you year round?
  16. What's the weight difference in what your throwing?
  17. What did you use for your rod holders?
  18. Kentucky is southeast???
  19. I hear the eat exclusively top water when it's cold... Lol
  20. How do you fish a jig so well if bass don't eat off the bottom?!?!?
  21. I'm not quite sure why you would be slapping the ground with the tip of the rod. Had you said there's not a lot of overhead clearance then I would understand that reasoning.
