what is my current rod best for?

Bassinkid · 02-04-07, 12:16 PM

I have 2 pretty nice rod and reel combos and i was wondering if it was a flippin, worm, spinnerbait or whatever setup on it.
its 6'6'' one piece, line weight is 10-17lb, lure weight should be 1/4-3/4, it MH action, and is for bass, walleye, and N pike.

other one is a shakespeare ugly stick 6', M action, 2 piece, 6-15lb line,
and the reel is a Mitchell spinning reel, with 10 bearings, 8lb/100 yrd. spool and it is the 308X Gold edition.

good for worms, small jigs, spinnerbaits, flukes...pretty much everything...that is a good multi purpose rod....probably the best to have if you can just have one...

I think you chose well when buying the 2 rod actions you did.The 6'6"MH is a workhorse, it will fish most every lure well enough to get by with.Being a 64 million modulus rod, it should have good feel as well.The 6' medium spinning is another excellent choice in my opinion.It will present a multiple selection of lighter lures well and lets you downsize line to 6-8 lb test which tend to fish certain lures better.

Good all a round rod.Will work for just about anything.

I agree-both are good all-around rods.

As everyone else said, good for anything.
