I have way too many now and already wish I could just go back to just a couple! If I’m fishing the Great Lakes or St. Clair for smallmouth, I’ll bring 3-4 spinning setups. If I’m fishing ponds or other lakes for largemouth I’ll bring 1 spinning setup. Here are the ones I actually fish: Tube/swimbait...

I’ve only caught largemouth bass on mine!

Great bait overall

That would be a neat experiment. I’ve wondered that before - would I be able to load a baitcaster with backing and then shooting line and head and actually be able to fish it? Cast it? Custom single hand or two-hand blank spiral wrapped to accommodate the reel and casting technique? Leave short shoo...

Beautiful setup!

I had the 7’11” and then traded a buddy for the 6’10” MH.

Love that series of rods!

Thank you rubs! The rod has performed flawlessly...just need to hook up a fish to really feel that glass blank in action.

I hope you get into one soon!

Great line for me with no issues as of yet.

I’ve got the 7lb. (Regular) and 10lb. (Hidden concept) on spinning setups, and 18lb. and 22lb. (Hidden concept) on casting setups.

Easy to manage. Great casting.

I don’t know if anybody else has noticed or if this is a single issue misprint but the new Legend Tournament spinning “Power Versatile” has “versatile” spelled as “versitile” on the handle…

Maybe it’s a misprint and worth more? Should I add to my collection?

Love my NASCI 2500… spooled with 10lb braid. No issues yet.

Looking at getting a 1000 for panfish and trout.

Some very impressive and inspiring lists! *I could make a list of reels I no longer own but regret selling* :sick: Here’s my (ever growing) list… Abu Garcia Eon 3600SE C3 5600 AB C3 6600 Catfish Special C3 6600 Striper Special C3 7000 Catfish Special C4 5600 Max X 10 Ardent C400 XS1000 (x2) Daiwa Da...

Could you describe the action and compare it to another rod. I was comparing it to what I imagined a light would be. Definitely a lot stiffer than I thought. I grabbed the 7’0”ML next to it and you can feel the difference in the tip and with the added length of course. I have a 7’6” ML legend elite...

Thanks for the feedback!

I had a chance to play with it again in the shop. I like the idea of it for light hair jigs and small jig heads with plastics like the 2” ripple shad.

Does anybody have the rod Shimano Curado 7’6” Light Spinning Rod and have feedback to share? I keep looking at it whenever I go into the local shop but I’m not sure what I would need it for other than thinking about it as a spring crappie/bluegill rod. What do you use it for? Line - braid or mono or...

Any of your bottom contact river smallmouth presentations . Tubes, Neds , craws etc Great to know. Line choice preference? Braid or fluoro or mono? What lb test is the sweet spot? Thanks! Amount of lead (overall weight) given conditions (depth/current flow) should dictate. It’ll handle a wide range...

Hi everyone. I’m looking at the St. Croix Legend Elite 7’6” MF (specifically the 2-piece version). Any feedback on the rod? Great all-purpose rod? Excels in any particular technique? I would use it for smallmouth in rivers and lakes. Do you ever fish slip bobbers for walleye? I never have but I wou...
