Use to fish a 6'6 back in the day but once I tried a 7'0 there was no looking back!

I love senkos they are the real deal but I have to try some maxscent general's and see what all the hype is about.

Try a swinging hardhead with a long shank work hook and drag it along the bottom. It looks and moves more natural give it try and see what works.

I would like to try the gika rig in time but I have to admit that I'm excited to try the Biffle Hardheads. I like the fact that it has a swinging head it makes the bait look more natural to the bass. I will add the strike king jointed structure head's as well since I've heard good things about them. I also picked up a pack of arkie u heads finesse swinging worm hooks. It has the same concept as the Biffle Hardheads but with a long shank worm hook. I will rig these up with some zoom ol monsters and power worms and see how that goes. Has anyone tried these? Thanks again guys!

Definitely start off with a medium fast action. Then you could always pick up a medium heavy fast action. Those two rods are the most versatile.

Definitely don't trash it just put a new prop on there and sling it!

Gary is a great guy just ask him what you're looking for and he'll take care of you!

How many turns on each side with the uni knot do you guy's prefer?

Try a magnum black trickworm drives them nuts!

This is some great info thanks! I guess I know which one I'm getting now.

I'm looking to try some prop baits this year. Any good recommendations? Is the devil's horse worth it and in what colors thanks again!

A black blue fleck 5" Senko it just works!

Wow this is some great info guys thanks!

Gonna try some Biffle hardheads this year. I know it's a proven tournament winner. Never tried this technique before so I'm excited to give it a go. Legendary Tommy Biffle hit the nail on the head with this one. I got some rage bugs, pit bosses, hula grubs lined up and eventually will add some Biffle bugs as well. Any input on this would be great thanks!

Original floating rapala one in gold and the other in silver.

Wow those look awesome!

Thank you all!

Thanks for the info guys. I'm going to try some black label and ph custom balsas and take it from there.

I love my kvd 1.5s but I'm looking to purchase some balsa baits. I mainly fish murky shallower waters. I know of bagleys, ph customs and black lable so I'm looking at those. I would appreciate it if anyone can inform me what size and some good colors for these applications thank you!

7ft for sure

Another vote for the tournament pro lfs it's a spectacular reel.

Cool thanks which one would you choose out of all of these? They all look great for the price point! I think I will I have a mh that I love.

Ok thanks

Looking for a new 7ft medium budget spinning rod. Out of these two which one would you go with? Any other suggestions would be great thanks again and Happy New Year!
