what to pair with my new rod and reel
i bought a REVO STX-HS and i bought a g loomis mbr 844 my question is i own 2 mg 50's 1 curado 100d and the revo rods are g loomis cr724 g loomis mbr 844 g blank 6'10 heavy action team diawa advantage 5'6" med i have 1 mg on the cr724 i had the other 1 on the g blank but it makes the rod real tip heavy i put the curado on that rod and it balances a little better should i put the revo on the g blank and put the mg on the 844 since the 844 isnt split handle and would balance better i plan on teaching the wife to use the baitcasters and think the diawa and curado would be a great starter rod any help would be great

Shimano Chronarch Mg
lol what i meant is most of my rods have the hook hanger above the reel so when my plastics arnt in use they could be dropping saltwater or salt it self on the reel so i guess to be safe i shouldnt use salty plastics with that setup

Shimano Chronarch Mg
dumb question but i have to ask it would the salts from ur plastic worms ruin ur reel or is that to small of an amount im in iowa and that would be the only way my reels would be around any salt

Johnny Morris SS rods
i dont own any bass pro rods or reels but i highly doubt there are any way near top loomis or croix ur talking about 2 companys that only do 1 thing build rods and there top of the line rods have many many years of research and testing unlike johnny rods that have only been on the market for a few years well thats my 2 cents take it or leave it my brother has a johnny reel and all he can say about it is look how long the handle knobs spin after u take ur hand off them
-
Suffix braid vs Power Pro
