my rod arsenal

skeeter944 · 01-22-07, 04:48 PM

hey yall, i decided to take some pics of my gear and my rods.
here is my gear,its not much,but like deacon says,"Keep It Simple".

heres my rods,the first one is my practice/topwater rod with 12lb mono on it.
its a 5'6'' medium action pistol grip rod with a zebco rhino baitcaster on it,it is pretty crappy but it does its job well.

the next one is my 6'6'' medium action falcon lowrider. i have 2 extreme reels coming in from bass pro soon,and this rod will have one on it with 15lb trilene big game for spinnerbaits and cranks.

the next one is my worm rod,a 6'6'' medium-heavy bass pro shops extreme rod with an extreme reel on it loaded with 17lb xps fluoro.

here is my carolina rig/pitching rig,a 6'6'' heavy action castaway challenger. its not the lightest rod but i got it for $20. it will also have an extreme reel on it soon with 20lb yo zuri x-tex.

here is my final rod,a 6' medium action composite spinning rod with a shimano spinning reel that has 8lb shakespeare supreme on it for dropshots and weightless trick worms.

i know that most of you have to many rods to post pics of,but i just wanted to show yall what i had. i will be getting a 7'mh extreme combo and also a 6'6''m extreme combo at the end of this year,then probably a good spinning combo. i have the basics covered right now though. see yall later!

skeeter944 · 01-22-07, 10:45 PM

wow,thats alot of rods zook!

Vabass22 · 01-22-07, 11:05 PM

15 and counting. Only have 3 real quality casters, and 2 quality spinner. The rest are either for saltwater, crappie, or are not too great.

Like the way you organized your stuff skeeter!

zooker · 01-22-07, 11:07 PM

actually the one in the back you see with the sticker is dam poeples rod -waiting on him to pick it up..

zooker · 01-22-07, 11:33 PM

You may wish to change lines for crankbaits. Thats unless your throwing shallow cranks. Most people use no more than 8 to 12 lb test for crankbaits.
Just a suggestion.

Hey Zook, if you want to buy any additional rods/tackle just let me know.
Selling some stuff, gets in my way.

skeeter944 · 01-23-07, 05:03 PM

i am intrested,pm me on what you have.

dodgeguy · 01-23-07, 05:10 PM
