Im sure this has been asked. If so just post the link.

I am trying to get my arsenal set up. What setups do you have rigged and ready to go when you are out on the lake?

Ex: Shaky head rig, crankbait, jig, chatterbait....etc

If you want to get more detailed and post the exact rod and reel you have for each one feel free. Im just wanting to start building my collection.

Would this be a good start?
These are the TFO series that are getting good reviews.

TFG SSC 664-1 (6'6" Med) Crankbaits, Topwater, and Weightless Plastics

TFG SSC 665-1 (6'6" MH) Spinnerbaits, Buzzbaits, T-rig, and light Jigs

TFG SSC 706-1 (7'Heavy) Carolina Rig and Flippin/Pitchin heavy cover

TFG SSS 664-1 (6'6" Med)Finesse applications i.e. Dropshot, shaky head

what size boat will you be on? Reason i ask, the rod lengths seem short for the applications, but maybe not if you have limited storage / deck space.

for me, i like 7'6" for C-Rigs and flippin, 7'3-7'4" for draggin' football jigs, 7'-7'2" for T-Rigs, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, buzzbaits, frogs

7'6 for deep cranks, 7' for most cranks, 6'6 light for really small, lightweight cranks

T-rig flippin stick, Jig stick, Heavy cover flippin stick, weightless senko, C-rig, squarebill, med depth crank, Deep Crank, Spinner bait, frog

Those to start....if I'm starting to pattern something I can use any of those to adjust or pull out another rod....example weightless senko and switch to a fluke...

More in the summer than winter! And depending on how dialed in I am! But winter it ranges from 5-8 and in the summer and not on anything it's like 10-12 lol... That's embarrassing! But again if I'm dialed in during summer it's about 6-8
