How do you avid fisherman set-up your gear? I have two Pflueger spinning reels:
1. President 6735XT (10.1 oz.)
2. Supreme 9235XT XT (8.6 oz.)
I have two spinning rods:
1. Temple Fork Outfitters - G. Loomis Signature
6' 6" length
6 - 12 lb. test
1/4 - 3/4 lure weight
St. Croix Mojo Bass
6' 9" length
6 - 10 lb. test
1/8 - 1/2 lure weight
I also have an ultra-lite set-up which I haven't used in a while.
Right now I am using the President XT, the heavier reel on the St. Croix, the longer (but lighter) rod, and using it for wacky, Texas and drop.
I am using the Supreme XT, the lighter reel on the TFO, the shorter (but heavier) rod, and using it for plugs, spoons and spinners. I figure the better casting reel should be used here.
If I use all three rods, I was thinking of either (1) using the St Croix for wacky, Texas and drop; the ultra-lite for spoons with a swivel, and the TFO without a swivel for other lures, or (2) use the ultra-light for lures and the TFO for Wacky and the St. Croix for Texas and drop.
How do you set up your gear? How would you set-up my gear?
Thanks
