Not sure, i dont think so though he would have showed me

GL3 MBR803X/ 6'8" MEDIUM HEAVY CASTING

Picked up the GL3, its in great condition, now looking up some reels haha Guy had a cuardo 70 XG and a 200, might pick on up next pay period.

I really do appreciate all the help here, Im going to meet with the guy selling the rods and talk to him, hes getting rid of them for about $100.00 a piece, id like to buy all three, but you know how it is. Im leaning towards his GL3 MBR803X, seems to be a better choice for soft baits, which is what i think im really gonna start out with.

Im not stuck on those two lures, i would buy others, what about this G Loomis MBR 782C, is this more versatile then the CBR ? theres a guy near me thats looking to downsize his rod collection, he has one of those for about 100.00 Im becoming more and more aware that there no one rod, but if i were to have only one to start what would be a good starting point. Yes, the trout rod and spinning reel is fine, I'm just looking to move up. the CBR903 is a baitcasting rod, I do not but wanted to get into it hence why im looking to get rod set up for baitcasting. Ive found a few Loomis rods for about $100.00 second hand, as well as some baitcasters for around 50-150 which is what id like to keep this build to price wise. appreciate all the information

Not sure, like i said im trying to put together a decent rod/reel combo on the budget end, per my research at the moment it seems like G loomis rods are highly regarded, an id like to pick one up second hand. as far as lures go i have a j-5 and j-7 size that ive been using on my 6 lb trout rod. so im pretty much starting with a blank slate.

Thank you for the feedback Preytorien, ive been using this website to familiarize myself with the differnet types of baits,im actually using jerk baits not cranks. https://bestbassfishinglures.com/jerkbaits/, that being said do you think this is suitable for kayak use ?

Hello im new to bass fishing and for the last year or so have been using some old equipment iv had laying around with some small crank baits, im looking to put together a good crank bait rod on a budget and someone near me is selling a CBR 903 7'6" rod really cheap, while im tempted to just grab it im wondering if thats right for the type of fishing thats near me and what i currently can do. Im in chester county PA and i can fish either the Schuylkill or Marsh creek but i have no boat. I like using crankbait since ive had some success on my small trout rods and junk reels and ive read about the cranking rods are pretty good for some jigs as well. I have a small Kayak that ive been using but im wondering if this CBR 903 is more suited for boat use and not shore or sit down kayaks. Any help ?
