Problem? None, but you probably wouldn't throw a senko on a MH spinning rod. Just goes to prove my point.

If only every manufacturer used the same criteria to label their rods. I've heard people say theyll throw senkos on a MH baitcaster.

Does a light reel mean more than durability for you? I like a BG 3000 but it is heavy. But it works well for my StC rods which alot of people call "tip-heavy" I'm rough on my gear.

Yeah, on my river I bring one rod and it's usually a 6' mlf. Right now it's a StC Triumph but I've also enjoyed a Fenwick HMG. My next rod is likely a StC Avid 7' mlf with a BG3000

I fish all spinning and fly gear, never tried a baitcaster but I've always believed that anything over 1/2 oz is better on a baitcaster. True?

Whipsnake Edit - I also liked the Curado

A fast tip will be more versatile than an x-fast. It will be better suited to more techniques.

Oh, and I've got an older revros. That's a great price.

I'm assuming alot but I'd suggest going with a mlfast spinning setup of it's the only one I get. I'd want something faster than a Fury too.

Fury will be a nice stick but I hear they're better for crankbaits than for bottom contact. I just prefer stC even with the heavy tip

I spent about $30 last year on lures and tackle. Mostly on hooks.

I use a loop knot for flukes, jerkbaits and topwater.

FG knot is the best once you've tied it well and its reliable. I have my way, it's a bit different but I can tie it on the water in a few minutes.

Catching smallies is the best and there are some d**n fine sticks on Bass Resource. Tight lines.

A 4# smallie on my flyrod & a 4.5# smallie on spinning gear And preferably with a hand tied fly

There are alot of factors that push smallies over here or over there. Competing factors keeps me engaged between the thrill of fighting them.

I fish xraps and RIP stops in my river for big smallies. I grab a husky jerk for deeper pools. But pike grab them too. Lost my favorite husky a few years ago to a pike. It happens.

Honestly, I almost never throw just rubber skirts on my jigs. I throw alot of these instead. Many times I'll include a soft plastic trailer. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm7TgTOupMP/?igsh=c3c4ZWo0eWtmM3Jj

This place is kinda remarkable. Honest thanks to Glenn and family

Jeez it would be nice to use a jig that's more than 1/4 oz in the current I normally fish. Must be about the best presentation in cold water

Impressive

That niche got a huge upgrade. Good choice

Yup, from abrasion Edit- my experience is with river smallies in sw Ontario.
