favorite trout rod and reel combo ?????????

[RJHooker]

I just picked up a one piece 5.5 St. Croix Premier light with a 1000 Shimano SaharaFE... It feels real nice, but I have only used it once so far. I spooled it with 6 Lb Seagaur InvizX flouro... Now I just have to catch fish with it lol!

I too fish the small phluger president on a 5 foot UL loomis.

I love it

Good line, it's the main line flouro I use - before you go out for the first time and then periodically after that, stretch it out to help prevent coiling. KVD line condition works well with it too.

I like a 5 ft ugly stick 4 lb stren and a 1000 series shimano reel!!! a few spinners, nightcrawlers and and small rapalas and I am all set !!! I used to love to walk the Big flatbrook for miles to get away from the crowds!!!

St Croix Legend Elite 6"6' lite power fast action paired with a Shimano Stradic FI 1000 reel and Seaguar Invizx Fluoro and a variety of tackle - worms, Powerbait, small spinners and small plugs like Yozuri Pins Minnow & Rapala F3's and F5's

6' St. croix triumph UL, shimano Sedona 1000 spooled with 6 lb pline. Small Panther martins, rapala countdowns size 3, pins, jigs from 1/16 to 3/32 oz. For bait, it's crawlers, butters, eggs, and fat heads on #10 or smaller hooks. No queso para Mi!

Hey Guy's,


Just like nsell wrote on page one I to am new tho this site. I also have the high end tackle addiction. My favorite stream combo is either a G. Loomis TSR740-2 matched to a Daiwa Exist 1003H native custom spooled with 3lb tectan, or a G. Loomis SR720-2 GL3 matched to a Daiwa Presso 1003. For lakes and ponds my favorite combo is a G. Loomis TSR801-2 GLX matched to a Daiwa Exist 1025 spooled with 4lb Berkley Fireline crystal with a 4' leader of 6lb vanish fluro carbon. The last combo is also my favorite for throwing jigs for crappie and yellow perch too.
