Depends on what you are throwing... For live bait I run medium/medium heavy 6-7 foot Ugly Stiks with good bait clicker reels on 'em... Same set up for dead sticking soft plastics come to think of it...

All my rods are from BPS their Graphite Series M & MH on my bait casters. I also have two Pflueger GX-7 spinning combos that I paided $65 for and they work just fine.

you'll need a rod for short fat slabs and one for long skinny slabs.A different one for topwaters, both popping style and nonpopping style. You will also need one for deadsticking, and one for sassy shad ( one for chartruese and one for non-chartruese). Dont forget to get one for large live bait, and one for small live bait. Wait, this isnt Bass Fishing...
