I hope you can attend the "Unofficial" BassResource RoadTrip at Toledo Bend in March.

 

 

 

 

 Very Nice is their any where I can get some info on this. I would LOVE to meet some of the guys from here.

Wow, so many setups, so many opinions!

 

My preference is a rod no longer than 6'6" as I do 

a lot of close-quarter fishing from the yak. And I 

get acceptable distance (acceptable to me) with 

that length.

 

I use anything from ML-M casting with Shimano 

Chronarch 50e reels for weightless and weighted 

senko/knock-off wacky rigged mostly.

 

On the spinning side, I've got MXF rods from 5'9"

to 6'6" with Shimano Stradic 1000FI reels, and one 

Daiwa Lexa 2000SH.

 

I don't really have technique-specific combos. Just 

combos that do whatever I need them to.

I fish 5" weightless Senko's on a 7-3 MH/f micro magic on 17lb flours with a lews tourney pro 7:1.1, but might switch it over to a 7' MH/f avid x, just because I like the avid x better, but I do like the longer rod. In really heavy cover ill fish it on a 7'4 H/F avid x, but my lakes don't have really heavy cover so I don't fish it on that as much. Wacky rigged Senko's on a 7' M/F avid x spinning rod with 12lb braid to a 8another sitelouro leader with a team lews gold spinning reel. I will fish it on a Carolina rig with a mono leader when I'm fishing deep, I seem to get solid bites with that in deep water.
