Just wondering what you guys are using for b/c rods for this size of swimbaits. It would be like the Strike King Shadalicious, Bass Magic, Reaction Strike & Poor Boy's Silly Bunny.

I'm guessing that this size swimbait w/ 1/8 oz weighted wide gap hook, the total weight is close to an ounce or more.

So what length rod & weight rating would I need to use?

I have an Okuma Guide Series 7'6" swimbait rod rated at 1-5 oz lures.  I think that this is just too much for the smaller swimbaits I want to use.

    Why?
