Title: An outfit for all season
Post by: bassnblues on March 04, 2010, 01:09:15 PM

OK...someone has a gun to your head and says that you have to pick 1 rod and reel from your current arsenal to use all year exclusively for all trips. Not including tuna/offshore.  If you also fish freshwater then you get to pick one for that too.

Describe your picks...

mine:

Salt: A 7' MH St Croix spinner rated for 15-20 lb line paired with a Shimano Spheros 4000 spooled with 20lb PP. Caught tons of stripers, blues and fluke with it. Enough backbone for chunking/livelining and can cast lures and jig too. I think it could handle bottom fishing up to 8oz.

Fresh: 6'6" Falcon spinner rated for 6-12lb line with a Daiwa SS spooled with 8lb mono. The rod is fairly new but I like it a lot.

Inside and outside?  5hrug That would be tough. :headscra:  One for the ocean and one for back bay might be a little easier. ;)

Ocean: 6'3" Shimano Trevala F with a Shimano Curado 300 spooled with 40# Sufix braid.

Bay:  7' St. Croix Legend Inshore with a Shimano Stradic 3000 FI spooled with 20# Sufix braid.
