follow up thread to the one questioning heavy lines for bass
i do want to get in to bass fishing, and im wondering if a combo ive got sitting around will work well for it
>line is 15 pound moni
>reel is abu garcia ambassadeur ambsx-5600
>rod is shimano FX C-70MB2
i got it for christmas (my family pooled together and got me one cool thing instead of 3 trinkets)
i live in NE ohio near akron, and the water im fishing most is mogadore reservoir, west branch, lake milton, the cuyahoga, and walborne reservoir (probably spelled things wrong and many of you may not have heard of them so here is the gist)
>range of water conditions from crazy murkey to nearly cristal clear
>gravel bottoms, sand bottoms, horrible muddy shit that i lost a boot in bottoms, and big rocks
>wide range of depths, some less than 15 feet, one dropping to 80 feet in the center
>plenty of brush piles, weeds, trees, rocks, etc
my three questions are: does this combo sound acceptable as a general rod (i have some spinning rods spooled 6, 8, and 10 pound test for finesse)
and what would be some good lures to get on a budget (50 bucks worth) that are pretty hard to fuck up using
and what if anything should i change about my set up
>picture unrelated, late summer channnel cat i got on liver
