I like cork, but not too picky. Longer handles are Where the party is at though

Power pro for everything. I'll use trilene leader at times

I have a bunch of ghost rods I'd sell in a bundle for cheap. Pm me for details if interested

Fishing the Midwest is one of the best channels on YouTube regardless of genre. Hands down best fishing channel

Speed, I can throw a nice box together for you for a good price. Just pm me. I've got tons of gear I'd love to pass on

I love a good top water too. Get a super spook jr in bone...it's my favorite lure. A good popper is always a must too, plus tubes are great lures

personally a medium fast action rod would be my choice to do all of this. I know not exactly conventional but it works for me.

I have 3 of them and they are great reels for the money. I've fished them over 2 years without issue. You can find them on sale around 50 bones and it's the next reel for that price I've found I have a couple bb1 pro reels and the carbon fire are not as nice but still very good. For the money I an very impressed

Palomar for everything

I actually have been looking at st Croix rods. They feel Great

After reading roadwarriors rod basics thread I have bought 3 reels...lews bb1 pro 7.1:1, lews bb1 5.1:1 and pflueger president spinning reel. I am wanting 3 rods to go with these reels to cover all my bases like he talks about. I want to keep it simple and catch fish. Cost for rods isn't huge concern. I like rods between 6 foot 6 and 6 ft 10. I fish from bank a lot so shorter rods are good plus my jon boat holds them better. Its a personal preference

President

I have a one that collects dust. I don't use it. I am thinking if using it for bluegill but not sure yet

I want an awesome medium moderate cranking rod. Around 6' 6" what do You guys like?

I've had a rough start to 2016. I've had 3 ghosts break so far and a Fenwick end up in the lake. Anyone had bad luck like this before?

When the bite in a pond gets tough I like a wacky rigged senko

Pivot frog

I literally only but green pumpkin or junebug anymore

I have both the *** and a school back pack. I like the *** one more but it's nothing amazing for 70 bucks.

Spook in bone

Tubes should be answer number 1 for everyone

Hit up a farm pond and we caught around 18 Between the two of us. It was nice to see fish again. I am going back out Tuesday afternoon well see what happens. Had a real cold spell here in Indiana over last week

Heddon spook jr in bone is my number 1 lure in my top water box.

Yeah just going to keep fishing. I know Indiana isnt the bass capital of the world for sure, but I am going to hit up Brookeville lake this weekend

This spring has Been terrible for my buddy and I. We have been out 10 times at least for long trips of 6 plus hours. Between the two of us I've caught 2 Bass and he has got zero. Been throwing everything from jigs, topwater, spinners, plastics etc. Just wondered if anyone else has bad such bad luck? I am going to keep fishing and find new water. Also this has Been on 4 different lakes as wel
