One rod for alot of things??

TennTyrant · 07-08-11, 05:46 PM

I want one rod that will be good at all of this, soft plastics, jigs, frogs, senkos, spinner baits, I will pair this rod up with a curado 200e7 and want it to be a powell rod so which one should I get?

That's a tough one...

Soft plastics, senkos, and spinnerbaits I'd go with a 3 power. But for jigs and frogs, I'd go with a 4. Like I said before, I'd rather be overpowered than underpowered, so a 4 power would probably be your best choice.

I like rods over 7' so the Powell Max 734CEF would probably be my choice.

I think I'd go with a 733, if it's a Max, and a 723 if it's an Endurance. But it really depends on how often you're going to be using frogs, and where. If it's just once in a blue moon, in something other then thick mats and pads, I'd go with a 733/732, if it's those more then anything else in thick stuff, 734. If powell had a 7 MH/F rod, I think I would probably go with that.

One tip though... USE BRAID.

7' MH/F will cover a lot of techniques.

If you want to fish all of those techniques on the same rod, I would probably go with a 704 or 734. I agree with BigBassin, I would rather be slightly overpowered than under.
