Rod Usage
I have a 6'7" Med/Hvy, X-fast action casting rod. A 13Fishing Fate Chrome. What is optimal use for this type of rod?
Thanks!
This rod should have to backbone to get a hookset on a variety of lures. Lots people use a 6.5' rod for casting in tight spaces. I like to skip lures with a shorter rod. I could see fishing a chatterbait, spinnerbait, small jig, floating worm, senko or even the new Mag Ned rig from the JT Kenney video today. https://bassu.tv/bass-fishing-video/mag-ned-rig-on-the-water-tackle-demo-jt-kenney
Thanks for the insight!
Follow up question on another rod. How about usage for 7 ft, medium power, fast action, spinning rod.
Im guessing finesse?
I fish a dropshot/ned rig on something like that, would also by good for open water (exposed hook) tubes, and if it has enough backbone, you could fish a shaky head. If this tip's soft enough, you might also try jerkbaits.
I use that rod from Cashion to fish shakey head and senkos. It's the perfect rod for those jobs.
