I figured I didn’t have anything better to do so I decided to clean my rods/reels and lube everything. So, now that everything is all apart, I figured why not spice things up a little and get my only friends to tell me how to fish my gear.  I throw everything from 1/16 neko to 4oz glides. That said, I have those two covered. I’ve got a new SLX rod coming tomorrow to carry the load for the glides. I’m getting rid of my St Croix Mojo Bass because it’s just too long at 7’10 in my kayak and I find myself not taking it. I throw my 1/16 neko and the like on a daiwa arid-x spinning rod. 
 

So, here’s what I have. What would you pair and what techniques would you use? I know this is all subjective, but I’m relatively “new” to this, and the bait monkey and rod and reel capuchin and I are on speed dial. So, I buy and buy. Want to make sure I’m fishing “correctly”. Confidence bait is a 1/2 demolition hammer.

 

Also have a Mach smash spinning combo that is 7’0 MF.
