I have 10lb. mean green on most, will this work, or should I mix it up?

Any help would be mucho appreciated.

Here are some tips for starters:

1.  Check the reel's specs.

2.  Check the rod's specs.

3.  Consider the lure's weight that you will be throwing.

Then go from there, balancing the rod with the reel, making sure all is within their paramaters for the rod and reel.

Long casts = long rods.

Flipping & Pitching = long rods.

Skipping Plastics = 6'6" rods.

And so on....

So check out the specs and match them up accordingly and have some fun.  :)
