That wasn’t a very nice comment. Why are you telling me to do that? I broke my falcon c-rig rod, tied on immediately a c-rig on a bass pro qualifier rod and cast the same area- the feeling was night and day difference- and it wasn’t even a high end falcon rod.

I suggested a rod from the list that I posted on here. So, now that we have what rod you like best for the C-rig, what baits are your favorite to throw on it.

I throw a Carolina Rig a lot and use a Dobyns DC 804C the "Carolina Riggin' Special". You can catch them on sale for ~$200 at times. I have this one for the long leader and 1oz plus weight. It’s the lake fork special. Nrx crr for the 1/2 oz shallow c rig set ups

If you throw a short leader or a 1 oz weight you can probably get away with shorter rods.
If you use lighter weights and/or longer leaders, I find the longer the rod the better.
I will use a 7'6" occasionally, but I prefer 7'10" or 8'.
I rarely use a weight heavier than 1/2 oz.
