"best Suited"question

[kwaldeier 1]

What rods work best with each kind of bait? Example-Baitcaster is good for plastics and...? Spinning tackle is good for...?

What works best at which time of the year. Example-Spring is best suited for...?

Are there lures suited specifically for ponds? Or specifically for lakes?

I recently got some baits that I would like to use with the suited tackle at the suited time to "up"my chances. Senkos, red eye shad,rat l trap,rapala floating,rage tail craw,rage tail toad, rooster tail,etc

Spinning tackle:  finesse

                           Weightless soft plastics for example.

 

Baitcasting gear: power

                            Most "moving" lures, jigs and weighted soft plastics.

I could write a book giving the answers to that question. RW summed it up nicely.
