Well I have a drop shot rod currently so maybe that could cover the ned rig. So would something a bit longer do better for me like a 7’2-7’6. Something to cover tubes, deep water applications, senko’s. Or stick with a 7’ medium fast

Perfect. Well I have a few casting rods and I have a 6’10 rod I use for drop shots so that’s why I was looking for a more versatile rod. I don’t do a ton of finesse fishing so just wanted one that I could try and cover more of my basis. I was thinking a bit of a longer rod just due to the fact I was figuring I’d use it for a bit of deeper water and tubes. Something in the 7’-7’6” range. But if a 6’6-7’ range is better then I’ll look that way

I’m not so worried with budget. Thinking like stradic ci4+ for the reel and loomis glx, st. Croix legend elite price range max. Maybe nrx. ive never order anything through the states before. With dollar exchange as well as shipping I don’t know how much cheaper it would really be. I definately thought a 7’ or longer would of been a better all round rod. Didn’t realize the short rods were so much more versatile

Awesome thank you! What makes a good tube specific rod? And the difference that of the ned rig rod? One lighter or longer then the other?

Hey everyone, fairly new to bass resource. Been checking in here a lot as you guys have such great info and now I’m looking for some advice. And a couple questions. Im looking to complete my arsenal by adding a versatile spinning set up. I’d like to be able to use this rod for small topwater on occasion, senko’s, neko rig, smaller-mid size tubes, smaller jerk baits. Most lakes I fish I fish 20’ and up, but unfortunately the one lake I fish annual pretty hard is down to 55’+. My first question here is what makes a good tube rod as I don’t fish tubes currently and have been told I’m missing out big time. second is what makes a good ned rig rod? Or so that a much lighter technique I can cover with my dropshot set up? last question along with what do you recommend, is should I be looking into something a little longer or sticking around the 7’ mark? Considering a st. Croix ltb or legend elite 7’ range or 7’6”, daiwa tatula elite 7’1 or 7’4 ags guides, shimano zodias 7’ range
