Your particular fishing techniques and preferences as well as the type and test of your line will influence your choice of fishing rod reel combos. It is very common for most fisherman that vary their fishing techniques to carry several different fishing rod combos that are already set up with specific lures or live bait rigs.

My fishing preferences are spinning rod reel combos and much of my fishing experience comes while using these outfits and my recommendations for rod selection included here will be based on my fishing experiences.

Rods

If you on doing a lot of casting and trolling with baits and lures in sizes ¼ to 5/8 ounces you will want to select a spinning rod that is 5 ½ to 6 feet in length that is medium power and fast action. This rod is the best choice for general purpose fishing and will an important decision you need to make when you start the selection process when you go to select your fishing rod reel combos.

If your fishing preference is casting small lures and jigs that weigh from 1/16 to 3/8 ounce a good choice in rods would be 5 to 5 ½ foot light power fast action spinning rods. This rod is good choice to propel your light lures and jigs because the rod has very good flex on your back cast giving you longer casting distances. This rod flexes easily on the back cast, so it works well in propelling light lures and baits.

If your specialty is casting and trolling large deep diving crank baits and heavy 1/2 ounce or larger live bait rigs than look for bait casting fishing rod combos that are 5 1/2 to 6 foot in length with medium power and fast action. Because this rod has more backbone than most spinning rods, it is better suited for heavier lures and rigs.

If you fish mainly with live bait a 6 to 7 foot light power, medium action spinning rod is a better fit when you go looking for your fishing rod reel combos. These rods are a better choice than a shorter stiffer rod.

It’s particularly important to choose quality fishing rod combos that are designed to be used to target sensitive biting species such as perch and walleye. When sensitivity is your main objective then you want a fast action rod because slower action rods are not designed for sensitivity. Most serious fisherman prefer graphite or boron rods because they transmit vibrations better then fiberglass rods.

There are other features of the rod’s construction that you need to consider. For instance, for better vibration the rod blank should extend in one piece from the tip all the way through the rod handle and should be constructed using single foot line guides because double foot guides add weight to the rod and restrict the rods action.
