Dedicated jerkbait, D10 and rubber rods always in the boat.


x2

I usually take with me 6 to 8 rods, but these three absolutly make every trip independant of time of year, weather, or location.

I have everything set aside for the upcoming two week trip... 2 each.. XXH, XH, H, MH casting rods for the toothy critters, plus MH, M, ML, L, and UL spinning rods for the other species.

Only two or three will be in the boat at any given time since I can change out stuff in a couple of minutes.

I usually have

2 for top water
2 for bucktail
2 jerkbait
2 plastic
1 just in case

I know it takes seconds to unclip a leader and put on a new lure, but I am too impatient for that and need to be able to pick up a rod and throw.....

for real, musky fishing would be, in order....

a light jig/creature rod
2 medium bucktail/topwater rods
2 medium/heavy crankbait/spinnerbait rods
a heavy sucker rod if I have some big suckers
a heavy glide bait rod
a X heavy crankbait rod

All the reels are older Abus that I bought cheap, upgraded easy and can fix on the road. Rods vary, decent quality St. Croix, Fenwick and Cortlands mostly.
