FINALLY! Someone who understands and can convey the difference between power and action of a rod and pair it with a specific technique. I cannot count the number of videos I have stopped watching when they say “this is a medium heavy action rod”. Job well done! Need more videos like this that have the true explanation.
for me since I'm 5'3" I use a medium mod 6'6" for target casting cranks with 12lb mono and chatterbaits, 7' medium heavy for jigs, Texas rigs, frogs, worms, senkos, spooks, and a 7ft medium moderate fast for finesse spinning set up with 10lb braid to an 8-12lb leader for 1/4 poppers to finesse jigs up to 1/4oz, small 3inch stick baits Texas rigged with a 1/16th-1/8oz worm weight with the 3 inch stick baits and smaller worms or shakey heads really any finesse fishing. these 3 rods and rod choices are what I've used for last 15-20years specifically for personal preference and comfort and braid is my predominantly used line of choice for everything. and if need be I'll use a mono or fluoro leader of a length from the tip of rod to the closest guide to the reel. with this length of leader it gives me the stretch and length of line to be confident enough to know I will never have an issue on my end to break off. I am a guy that likes to jerk semi fast so by the time I get to my shoulder or full strike position the hook is in the right place 85-95% of the time. do I break off some times yes just like everyone else. if I get bit off then usually it's because I'm in an area with pike as always and I'm not a perfect angler or claim to be but as you said if all things are paired up properly you raise your odds of landing fish more if all things work together. also if a rod doesn't feel right same with a reel paired together then change it up. so I go with shorter rods and max a 7.5.1 or a 7.1.1 bait casting reels for both baitcasting setup and a spinning reel that's a 3000. so hope this helps someone else that may fish like me or similar. plus I don't mind changing baits on the fly if need be because honestly yes having 10 rods for everything helps but sometimes simplicity is key. but will be adding a 7'3"-7'6" heavy baitcasting rod and a 8.1.1 lews lft down road with 65lb braid for the extreme thick stuff for large frogs, flipping and pitching the 3/4-1.5 ounce tungsten Texas rigs and big baits.
I recently got back into fishing after probly 7 years and i decided to go get a new rod and reel and i bought a medium light rod and i just didnt realize it... now im regretting the purchase. I usually use texas rigs with senkos, craws, recently started using chatterbaits... and i feel like medium light just isnt enough
So the first rod he was talking about is a moderate rod with what action? Fast? I recently got a Pflueger Patriarch size 35x with 3/16 - 3/4 size lures and looking for a good rod to pair with it.
I want one fishing rod, have a warfare Penn conventional reel I use for saltwater and a Spartacus kastking for freshwater. What would be the best hook and weight for each?@@Wired2Fish
Thanks to UA-cam, I'm now a bank fisherman with 13 different fishing rods, a 40lb tackle box, all stuffed into a compact suv where I can no longer use my center console due to the rods sticking up and changing the radio on me when i hit a speed bump! 😂😂 (I wouldn't have it any other way 😋)

Thanks Brett. We're with ya. Kyle is a smart dude and rod designer himself. We enjoyed his insights.
This is a massively underrated video on action and power.
Beauty of fishing is you’re never done learning! Thanks for the info
Learn something new about every time I’m on the water

Just bought a fate v3 7’5 heavy for beating around the bush

The action is moderate meaning it bends a lil further down in the blank the power may be medium or medium heavy
Thanks for the video
Our pleasure John.
