Hey guys I need your professional opinions. Right now I have these two combos I use mostly.

-6' MH Berkeley lightening rod

-revo sx 6.4:1

-50lb power pro

-6'6" MH st croix triumph

- shimano chronarch e 6.5:1

-30lb power pro

I fish senkos, topwater hollow body frogs, spinnerbaits, sometimes buzzbaits, rapalas and poppers. Would you keep these combos as is or swap rods and reels around? I've always wondered whether they were mated correctly. What would you guys have them setup as. And what do you think each one would excel at?

There's virtually no difference there between them. Swapping reels on the rods won't make a difference I would notice in terms of fishing anything better or worse, based on their specs alone. I'd keep the St. Croix with the Chronarch just because I would consider that combo the best reel and rod, both. I would use it for jigs, spinnerbaits, buzz bait's, plastics, and maybe the frogs. You're using braid, which I don't like, but it should do fine for all of this.

The 6 foot rod would be better for close quarters casting such as around docks where a shorter rod can make it easier to skip a bait or cast under overhanging branches and other things. Otherwise if I had those two combos the Berkley rod would never see action. Some may disagree though.

Keep em use the lightning rod for flipping and fishing cover and use your other for everything else
