Okay, I want to get good at bass fishing but have had little luck so far. I only have two rods. A Shimano Clarus MH 6'6"EF with Abu Garcia Revo S, and a St. Croix Ultra Light 5' with Cetus Tica reel.

What rigs should I use for each?? I'm going to get a Medium action rod this week for split-shot rigs and jigs.

Slow down. You don't need to match rods to lures when you are just getting started just go out there and learn two or three different lures or rigs. I would suggest a Texas Rigged worm with 1/4oz bullet sinker and a RoadRunner on that UL.

I have alot of stuff. Spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, chatterbaits, worms, senkos, craws, hawgs, crankbaits, topwaters, spoons, I have those. I caught a bass of a spinner today, but it spit be 20 ft from the boat in the air....I was mad...I tried t-rig on my ultra light and didn't work for hook sets..

In that case I would add one more M 6'8" or 7' to your rods. The Clarus is a great rod.

Thank you. I'm looking for a farly cheap combo under $75. What speed and ball bearings should I look for?
