Pline makes a pretty inexpensive yet strong copalymer (exuse my spelling) that is a great choice.

Veritas 2.0 all the way, how long you want it( ) depends on weather your fishing from shore,boat kayak ect.

That a perfect jig reel anything no the higher speed end, I use a curaodo I hg.

There really isnt any need for a snell not bro, but to each his own.

I hate to say it but once you get around the 2 once wieght you need to get a "swimbait" rod.

I have a few for flipping reels, but the casting isnt as good as the shimanos in the price range.

The curado i has xship so it would hold together better for your spinner bait/cranking. FYI the curado i doesnt come in a 7.3:1 the highest is 7.2:1.Sorry couldnt help myself.

15 pound invisx....for all crank baits.

Get the curado i the ones i have re little tanks,great drags too.

Practice!

Dont laugh...Rapala j-9 silver black.

Are you freaking stupid? Just kidding man i would fish it I caught a twelve and a half pounderout of a private lake.

Cool man, never know what to expect.

Just stick to natural colors. watermelons,pumpkins ect.

the only knot that has never failed me is the improved clinch knot, and i know it hinders the bait and all but its the only knot i really have confidence in.

Iknow of a couple of lakes like that.

Thats a great combo man good luck=.

I agree 100%, hey if you really want to be ticked off, watch a couple bill dance episodes.

Ive found 3 to 4 inch sections of senkos(no weight) are great for targeting river bass, especially the sluggish ones.

Ok so smart guy, theres a reason bluegill are nick named pan fish.

Its possible,but its highly unlikely. You just haveto ask your self if its worth the time to keep fishing for it ar head to a new spot.

Dink=less than 18 inches, quality= 4 pound plus.

Fluke, senko, spook. Good luck.
