When I catch a biggun I'll let you know

Salt- Penn International 130 st (2-speed) on a Custom 5ft bent butt 130 lb class rod.  (will pull a 3 bedroom ranch off the foundation)

Fresh- so far, the Revo STX on a 7'11" H Crucial (will pull the doghouse across the yard)

BTW at least that's what I'm counting on! Like Muddy, I'll have to get back to you when I can "up" my PB :)

loomis sjr783s / shimano stradic 2500

soft plastics and light jigs

mbr844/curado200dhsv/20# big game.

a tad heavy but, have literally skied 9#'ers across the water and into the boat with this combo.

tough combo to beat when you're after the biggest toad in the lake.

E21 Carrot Stix 7'3 MH / Shimano Core 100mg

Alpster custom 6'8" MH built on Shikari blank, spiral wrapped and a Revo S-L.

Great stick for pitchin small to medium jigs.  This year it has pulled duty with just about every bait I use, short of the big stuff.

I have and will use the "combo for hauling in the biggins" which is a BPS 6'6" medium heavy Pro Qualifier spinning rod with a size 30 Pro Qualifier spinning reel spooled with #30 Stren Super Braid and a 4' leader of #20 XPS Fluorocarbon tied on to a 2/0 Gammy Octopus Hook with a Zoom finesse worm rigged weedless wacky style.

Well, that is if bass between 9# and 11# are considered "biggins"

St croix LE 7' MH Fast + Shimano Metanium MG + Pline 10lb + jerkbait... couldn't be better :)

7'6" Kistler Telescopic XH/Fast

60lb power pro braid

3/0 - 7/0 Owner hook

or

big jig

it's almost scary what this combo can pull out of the slop!

shimano cumara 7'2" M/X-FAST.

shimano curado 200E5 spooled with 12lb sufix camo or 50lb power pro.
