  1. With what I have available, how would you recommend setting up these two rods (which line for which rod and which bait would you use for which rod)? I primarily fish small ponds and lakes in Colorado. Bass, crappie, occasionally stocked trout and catfish. My goal is to set the two rods up so I can do as little bait changing as possible and have some versatility if I need it. I fish soft plastics (texas rig, senkos), jigs, and sometimes crank baits. I guess trout dough and salmon eggs too on occasion. Rod 1: 6'6 pfleuger trion spinning combo with 35 size reel, medium power, moderate fast action Rod 2: 7'0 abu garcia vendetta spinning combo with 30 size reel, medium heavy, fast action The abu is a little bit longer, lighter and stiffer. I have 8lb mono, 10lb braid, 14lb braid and 20lb braid available. Have always just used mono with a snap directly to the hook for quick and easy bait changes but I want to start setting things up to be a little more specific. Maybe my rods are too similar for that, but I got a great deal at the gander mountain going out of business sale and this is what I have. Which line would you put on which rod and which bait would you use for which rod?
