How do I pick a fishing pole?
Apr 8, 2019 18:29:13 #
I want to buy a new pole, it'll be for lake fishing in the south east, USA. I just wanna catch fish right now, and the lake near me has largemouth bass, bluegill, channel cat, perch, crappie, etc.
What size pole? what size fishing line? Should I go to walmart or bass pro shops and just pick any cheap pole? Thank you!

What do you think about length of rod? but a rod that comes with a reel or buy a separate reel?

7' medium or medium light. Find the pole you like. 10 lb power pro is a great line. Mossy green.

It's the color of the power pro braided fishing line. It's about the only line I use. If you looking for a brand of rod. I use St. Croix rods. For reels I use shimano or pflueger.

Hello, I find that a medium, 6' Ugly Stik is both dependable and fits any budget. I have been fishing Ugly for many years. From my ultra liters through my trolling long rods, I have never snapped one fishing and catching large fish. The only one I broke was when I closed the door of my F-150 on one that wasn't all the way in the back. I put a new tip on it, and it's my only 5'10" rod.
