5 rods is my setup in my kayak.
 

7' ML/F spinning rod with a 6.3:1 for finesse
6'6" M/MF cranking rod with a 5.4:1 baitcaster

7' MH/F or M/F with a 7.3:1 baitcaster for general use

7' MH/F with a 7.8:1 baitcaster for jigs

 

The last is either a 5'5" M/M pistol grip with 3.8:1 baitcaster for topwater or a 5'5" UL/M for crappie.

Mind if I ask why a 5’5” for topwater? I’ve always heard long rod for topwater. I’m interested in your reasoning.

Depends on where I'm fishing, but here's a pretty typical list of setups:

 

1. 6'8" MXF Spinning SC Avid X + Pflueger Supreme XT 30 (flukes, senkos, other weightless plastics)

 

2. 6'10" MLXF Spinning SC LTB + Pflueger Supreme 30 (Ned, shakyhead, dropshot, sliders)

 

3. 6'4" MXF Casting Fenwick Aetos + Daiwa Tatula 100 (Trebled Topwaters; Jerkbaits)

 

4. 6'8" MHF Casting Fenwick Aetos + Lews Tournament MB (T-Rigs/Jigs)

 

5. 6'10" MHMF Casting Fenwick Elite Tech Smallmouth + Dawia Tatula 100 (spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, Buzzbaits, Crankbaits)
