Looks good, I’ll take the rod, on cape so dm please
-
I’m building a freshwater rod currently, I just wrapped one up too, I would be happy to get in contact with you
-
I have been using the 3.5 and 4.5” dartspins with great success on the pickerel
-
I’ll take it, dm for info
-
Can’t fish yet but have the fever bad, it will drop once season starts
-
Get some of the dartspins, the dumbest lure, with the best success. You’ll catch any predator on it. Best of both worlds- realistic color and feeling as well as the thumping of the blade.
-
Used to fish the money minnows. I have switched over to the dartspins with tremendous success. You get the right shape, and the spinner blade on the ends gets bass, pickerel and trout all hot and bothered.
-
I use the shimano sojourn for freshwater, for a $40 rod thoroughly impressed. Casts like a missile.
-
For some reason the brown and rainbow trout colors work wonders. The brown in muddy water, rainbow in clear. Outside of those grab some Thomas rough riders 1/5oz
-
I’ve been beating on a 40 for 3 years, only done some cleaning and greasing. Just replaced the drag washers, several large albies in a row popped the spring off. Good solid reels
-
Thanks for all the input, I will try again soon. Needed to bend the rod. Found a few pickerel in one of the ponds today. Will find a white perch one of these days
-
Tried some saltwater Creeks for some White perch earlier. Nothing. Are they native to the cape and the estuaries. Was using a 2” grub on a jig head. Have you guys encountered them before in the estuaries?
-
Your 9’ would be fine on the open beach, I usually use a 9’ from the beach most of the time. Pack the longer one to reach the outer bar.
-
The weight of the reel will create an equilibrium point just above the reel seat. The rod will no longer be top or bottom heavy
-
The 5000 will balance better
