Thanks for all the input on a rod/reel setup!!! I ended up getting a Daiwa Tatula SV with a 6.3:1 ratio. Now to look into all the rod recommendations.

Thanks for all the input. I was kind of leaning towards the Tatula SV and based on the replies looks like a good choice. The Irod Genesis rods are now in the mix based on Finnz922 recommendation.

Thanks for info on the setup........and the rubber worm lol?

Hi everyone. New to the bass resource community. Great site with a LOT of info. I’ve done all of my fresh water bass fishing with spinning gear, but I’d like to try my hand at baitcasting. Most of my fishing is done with top water lures, shallow diving crankbaits, spinner baits and rubber worms. What I’m looking for is a good all around setup (if that exists). Not looking to break the bank, but would be fine spending up to $300 for the rod/reel setup. Any help sorting this out would be GREATLY APPRECIATED. Thanks.
