Right now i have 5 rods/reels and thinking about getting a sixth.  I have 3 spinners and 2 baitcasters.  I was wondering what yall think for the central florida area what i should have prerigged most of the time?   I do not mind trying anything new so whatever yall think ill give it a shot.  The rods i have are 3 medium action 1 medium heavy and one ultralite for that extra little fun.(caught a 4.04 pounder on it last week haha).  Anyways wheat lures do yall suggest with what reels? thanks.

Def agree with spinning, you can't go wrong with any of those 3.

Casting, I'd put a frog on one of them, especially for the summer

Nothin like a big florida bass jumping out of the water and yankin a frog. I live in Cali, and just started using frogs this summer, most intense strikes I've seen. My heart skips a few beats.

Thanks everybody for your suggestions keep em coming haha.  

Jimzee you like that huh?  I figured it would be a little diff from everybody elses. Thanks

Hmm...

I take a completely different approach when I'm bank fishing or fishing from my yak:

One rod, one class of lures (generally soft plastics). On another day, I'll fish topwater, a shallow crank, spinnerbait or maybe even a jig, but just one lure on one rod. I don't want to carry a bunch a gear and I want to stay completely focused on what I'm fishing, not what I could be using.

I agree got to have a frog on one of them.

I carry 3 baitcasters and 3 spinning combos. One spinning combo doesn't get used much until I can replace the rod though (just getting worn out and it's more of a catfishing setup).

What I usually keep rigged for our tournament lake (Truman lake in Missouri, Long Shoals Marina. Almost no weed cover on this lake to speak of):

Casting (Mono line. 1 M that is almost ML with 12# test, 1 M with 15# test, and 1 MH with 17# test):

ML: Crankbait (usually rattle-trap.)

M: Jig

MH: T-rig (lizard or worm, starting to use brush hog; sometimes c-rig with same baits; and on occassion a Super Spook)

Spinning (Braided line. 1 M that is almost MLwith 30# test, 1 M with 40# test, and 1 MH with 65# test):

ML: Tiny Torpedoe (may change to small spinner, in-line spinner, or small crankbait. On another lake I'll use a frog)

M: Spinnerbait (it's what a spinning combo was made for anyway)

MH (not often used): Large spinnerbait or buzzbait. It is often set up for live bait.

This usually allows me to have something available to catch fish.

I have been concentrating on catfshing for many years and have gotten back into bass fishing this year.
