- We've learned a few things about staying efficient and effective on the water over the past few years. We are constantly trying new techniques and that means bringing the right combos to get the most out of each new things we try. We've put together the top 3 fishing combos you should have with you at all times and then walked through our process for what the next 1-3 may look like. This applies to bank, kayak and small boat anglers who want to have everything they need but don't have the room to bring 45 setups with you on the water.
What are your top 3??

What rod and reel combos do you NEVER leave home without?
lew's combo
6' 7" med fast spinning
7' med fast spinning
7' medium casting
7' 3" med hvy fast casting
7' 4" hvy mod fast casting
My main 5. Cover everything I need. Then have about 6-8 other options in the rod locker. 😂
I never leave home without two bfs combos and a 7ft Lews Light Mach 1.
My 7'3" MH/MF Lews Lite 85 HM Mag Jig rod with a Curado mgl 70 K was the combo I never left without, but the handle won't pop the spool release button up all of a sudden. 😞
zillion svtw and shimanno zodias 7 MH
The CZcams shorts of the guys that complain about everything are top tier comedy, you two are hilarious
🙌🏼
BFS? More like big freaking scam!!!! Lol.
Thanks!
The upside down glasses lol
Agreed ! The funniest part is if you go to any fishing channel you’ll see those comments!! lol
If I am on a boat: Top-water: Heavy, fast. 7,6 Moving: Med-Heavy, fast. 7,4 Texas-rig: Med-Heavy, fast. 7, 2 Spinning: Light or Med-Light, Fast 7, 0. This year trying to reduce to three rod set ups while kayaking. If I am walking the bank I reduce it to two deciding what I what technique I am using. My sons gave my dobyns rods and baitcast shimano reels when I retired several years and I really like Cadence spinning rods and reels for ned rigs, wacky rigs, and dropd shots. (I don't like retying drop shots either). I like my 6, 6 glass rod (Favorite) for cranking because I am vertical challenged and struggle with casting longer rods. I fish at least once a week (live on a small lake) and often several times a week in the summer. Enjoy your content. Thx.
I have 3 of the 7' 6" ML Ark Invoker spinning rods. Use them for dropshot, ned and lil' underspins, I freaking love them. I especially love the grip. Great rods.
The TFO Taction looks very similar to a G Loomis. I really like the looks of it.
My typical setups are
MHMF 7'3" moving baits
MHF 7'3" all around
HF 7'4" jig worm
MF 7'2" Finesse
I'll use a 7'9" swimbait rod and kick the spinning rod out.
Running everything from a BFS to 7'-8" glides this year. Love the pattern of those golden shiner Huddlestons.
***Disclaimer*** I know nothing!
I don’t leave my house in central Florida without my st croix legend Xtreme 7MF, with a Stradic 3000, 15lb braid and 7lb flouro leader with a core tackle wacky shot ready to roll. I fish a pretty light drag, and primarily soft plastics. I freakin love my setup!
Fishing from the bank...
TFO Professional 6' 6" medium heavy, moderate fast casting paired with a Shimano SLX 151
Diawa Tatula XT 7 ' medium, fast spinning paired with a Diawa 2500 Revros
St. Croix Premier 6' 6" medium light, fast spinning paired with a Shimano 2500 Sahara.
Nice gear breakdowns 👍
1. KK Kestrel 6’9” Light Fast BFS- I never leave it. Easily my favorite rod. It throws any finesse bait including moving baits and finesse top water. Incredible Rod!
2. St Croix Victory Spinning 7’1 MF
Then my 3rd would depend on where.
3.
Right in line with what I'm using. I tend to go a little shorter. Just find them easier to manage and in the yak I don't miss the casting distance. Rod 4 is an ultralight setup for sure. Life saver on the days when it's panfish or go home skunked.
💯
Listening to this and half watching as I get my gear ready but I'm getting distracted dew to the nerdy geek gear talk which I love. I'll be watching this later at least one more time. Really enjoying these types of videos
🙌
Great video.. I never buy combos. I'm a bank and kayak fisherman. All my baitcasters and spinning reels are Seviin Reels. My rods are Alx Rods. Two crappie rods are Cajun Rods
I fish out of an old town 120PDL. I take 6 to 8 combos almost every trip.
I use spinning combos a bit more than most people here being a walleye fisherman, as well as pike but that’s a different world. I really like a 6’6”-6’9” M or ML for fishing ball head jigs with grub (anything similar to a Ned rig/shakey head style lure would be similar) for a quicker hook set and more sensitivity. A 6’9” M spinning with a fast tip would complement the 7’6 ML very well to cast lures that might have a little more weight and thicker gauge hook.
Great review episode! You guys are killin it….even Paul is growing on me….
😂
@@paulglass7268 im happy you find the humor…all in good fun…
this is a very good video for someone just getting into fishing baitcasters
Thanks!
I just ordered the AAA spinning rod so hyped to try it out
Heck yeah! Thanks!
Great job! Appreciate your incite! Thanks for sharing
You should try the Daiwa Tatula Elite Brent Ehrler Multi-Purpose Rod. It does a lot of techniques well.
Definitely on our list!
Sorry no kayak. It's been a week since I've been on. Had to send my wife to Seattle. Her mom is on hospice and giving up on medical treatments, DNR. Thanks I needed a break.
So sorry to hear that!
Thoughts and prayers man, thoughts and prayers for all the family.
Thank you all.
It's with a heavy heart that We have sad news about my wife's mom. She passed away peacefully on June 11th. The family is morning and making arrangement. Her ashes with be scattered at mirror lake where she can be with her husband in heaven. He also passed in 2012. Thanks for all the kind words!
@timtweet8149 sorry to hear that man.
I would love to hear more about TFO.
Will be using them all season!
I have both a 7'2 Medium Light Expride and an NRX+ 852S. I can't cast them very far. Can you suggest a TFO that can do everything (Neds, Shakyheads, Nekos, and Wacky Rigs). Will that 7'6" do all these?
I was about to say that 7’6 ML or M would crush all that
I end up falling back to my spinning med-fast, 1/8-3/4oz. Rockies to pike, pulled in everything. Slowly moving off my mh casting more to my med-mod, 1/4-1oz as my 2nd for anything treble. This is for bank angling.
Thanks for picking up the AAA rods! The c30 might be oversized… could always pop it on another spinning setup as it is a great reel!
I'm so glad i found your channel 🎣 💪 😅
🙌
Would like to see this with rods and reels under $100 ($100 for each). Many anglers don’t spend $300-$500 on combos.
We can do that, this video is mostly to show action/power and reel style, not specific brands
We tried to make the point that you don’t need to get these specific brands. Just focus on the action/power, reel speed/line etc
Yea I got that and I would spend for these combos. Just that as I was sitting here watching it I thought it might be helpful for your viewers on a budget to see brand combos in that price range. I enjoyed this video overall. Just a suggestion.
I caught 8 in about an hour and 15 with the AAA rod and a flashback mini after work a couple days ago.
Awesome!
Ya love to see it !
Hey can you guys do a honestly option of Fin-X signature casting rods, i picked up a spinning rod from them but i want to know what the casting rods feel like before i buy one, if you wouldn’t mind doing a video on it
We can try to aquire some
I would love to see a complete review on your Collab rod with monsterbass
Sure, we will be fishing again soon
my daiwa legalis 2000s-p on a dock demon with 6lb or 4lb is my main kayak setup for panfish. setup is soo light you can cast all day... i might try a higher end ice fishing rod next. I fish tight rivers with lots of over hang, and having a short rod is key.
Great video!!!
Thanks!
Three combos is my max. Very similar to these selections minus the heavy.
1) 7-3 MHF caster, 2) 7-1 MF spinning, 3) 6-10 MLXF spinning
Great information what is the best medium heavy power moderate fast action casting rod for around 50 to 60 dollar if there is any
Interesting, I have a 7.2.1. and wouldnt think I would need to even go that fast with a chatterbait, I often use it on my 6.4.1 most the time. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. Some interesting thoughts here I wouldn't have thought of. Never would of considered going below a medium on bass except with a BFS set up.
6 speed works great but we feel like it’s easier to go slow than try and speed up
@aaanglers did I screw up if I got the Ceymar C-10 and C-30 do go on my aaa ultralights I picked up? I grabbed two of your rods because I usually let others use my rods (I’m a boat guy) when I have them out with me.
Nah those sizes are great
Another great video! Entertaining and informational. Hahaha. Thanks for all that you guys do! And where do i get one of those SWEET Beast Coast hoodies??? Straight up PIMP. Thanks for everything!! Reid
Thanks! Should still be on the Beast Coast Website!
For fishing cranks, Topwater and spinnerbaits would a 7ft Medium fast Daiwa tatula XT be good? I have seen most people recommend a medium heavy wouldn’t that pull trebles easy?
Medium would be better than a MH fast. Medium heavy mod fast is where its at
Those TFO rods look good. Have you guys used the Cashion Kayak series yet?
No, just the BFS
Bfs is not a gimmick.....the DC reels are, and I run shimanos.
Yeah, I really don’t use them at all anymore, or worry about it. So, kinda there with ya, until the technology gets insane
Should I get the slx xt or the Lews lfs for a good everything reel ?
Both are great! I tend to lean towards the XT
Slx are amazing reels
Mod fast is just better…. I got a heavy mod fast and its one of the sexiest rods i own
I fish out of a kayak like you guys and have always avoided rods over 7’3”. You guys find any issues with rods over that length?
Nope! Got my 7’6” - 8’ with me all the time!
More about the rod butt
I take 7 rod/reel combos out on my yak bc of my 6 rod holders…if I’m fishing with one I can have 6 rods in the holders 😬
Same 😂
Great Video!!! I am really curious about the ML (~1/8-1/2oz) range of casting rods and what reels to pair with them. This range seems to be the bridge between the BFS and standard bait casting gear. I already have a ML spinning setup, but would like an ML baitcasting set up. There are a number of BFS rods AND standard baitcasting rods offered in this range (1/8-1/2oz). What exactly is the difference? The only thing I can think of (other than marketing) is that the BFS rods often have micro guides. At what line size and lure weight does a BFS specific rod and reel make sense, and why? If one is in the grey area of line and lure weight/size, what factors should sway you towards a BFS and non-BFS rod/reel. I live in the Chesapeake Bay area and do a mixture of inshore and freshwater fishing, so I need a versatile ML casting setup. Any thoughts about Rod and reel “parisons” for an ML casting setup? Thanks so much for the great content!
Good question. It's a pretty niche market for those rods and reels. We like the Mojo Bass Trigon ML paired with a BFS reel like the Kastking Kestrel, Ark BFS or you could go with a 70 or MGL Shimano Curado or SLX.
Thanks guys! I have an oddly specific question, what rod would you use to throw big (10XD like) crank baits that is under 7 foot? Unfortunately for me my boat only has 7 foot rod lockers 😭.
That is a super specific setup. You would need a medium heavy to heavy moderate if you can find one. Usually big crankbait sticks are longer
I'm looking this up for you right now. Gimme 10 minutes.
Okay! I found 2 good options for you. Well actually 3.
BPS Cranking Stick 7' MHF 3/8 - 1.5 $99
Lew's Xfinity pro 7' MHF 1/4 -2. $40-80
Lew's KVD AP reaction MHF 1/4 - 2 $100
All 3 will throw deeper divers up to the 8xd on the BPS and 10xd on the others. All 3 will throw the Berkeley dredger 25.5, the ultimate deep diver imo. I build rods. Crankers specifically.
I'd suggest the KVD. It's extremely versatile but it will absolutely crank. Very sensitive.
Good calls man! Thanks for helping out!
@@aaanglers you're welcome. This literally my job. Building/finding super specific rods.
I like y'all. Wouldn't mind building you something if you'd like. My lead times aren't long right now.
If I do it right, I'm the fishing version of the Wizard of Oz in 5 years. 250 rods a year max. Super specific. Hand crafted. No machines. Only I build them. Nobody else. Nobody meets me, I have a pro angler for a pitchman.
It's like the old days. An angler you fished with shows you something he had made. You like it. He calls me with your request. I go to work and eventually, a rod shows up. I build to specific baits. That's my calling card. Not a crankbait rod, a Berkeley BX Brat rod, etc...
I'm going for the ultimate niche: Custom builder to the top level Tournament angler. I already have a BASS opens guy, and 2 top guides in my area, 1 being the top guy.
No BS, I'm good at this. HMU and give me a way to send you my contact info and I'd gladly build you both something.
I'm snapping my line at the braided line Palomar knot during hooksets. Even a strike from a 2 lb largie snapped at the knot. :( Wonder if I need some with faster action.
What lb test line and what power rod? This happened to me early on until I figued out line ratings for rods. I had 30 lb test on my heavy stick and needed 50-60 lb test. Solved the problem
Super awesome video!!! I was a little confused when you were talking about the first “redundant” rod at 17:04. You refer to one as “medium mod” and the other one as “medium heavy”. However the “medium mod” that you’re referring to is the “medium heavy” moderate-fast action rod (TFO Professional) in your first combo pick. The only thing different about the “redundant pick” is that it’s a fast action instead of moderate-fast. Is the fast action the reason it does better at jig fishing and spinner bait fishing?
We find the moderate to handle trebles, chatterbaits and spinnerbaits better.
@@aaanglersthanks for the response! So just to clarify, “medium mod” refers to the medium-heavy, moderate-action correct? I just wanted to make sure “medium mod” didn’t mean medium-power/moderate-action. In other words what does the “medium” mean in “medium-mod”
What spinning reel combo would you go with for salmon fishing?
We don't salmon fish much... But most folks that we know that do, use Okuma.
I have and really want one just can't afford it
Would the TFO Professional Heavy 7’6” casting rod be a good alternative to the SLX in the 3rd combo (flippin’ stick)? On the same note, would the TFO Professional 7’6” Medium-Light spinning rod be a good alternative to the Bass Taction in the 2nd combo? Any reason I couldn’t go TFO Pro for all 3 combos?
No reason at all! I love those rods.
@@aaanglers Awesome! Thanks for the reply 😊
Full mono and full fluro is ok but not full braid? 😬
With only a few exceptions we run leaders on all our braid setups
@@paulglass7268 imma take note 😅
Video idea.....Now do one with a minimal loadout, that covers almost everything, in a throw n go kayak, in creeks and small rivers. Thanx guys
Done!
2-3…. 6 bait casters 2 spinning. Every time lmao
minimum 5 rods when i bank fish
How tf do you carry 5 rods all day? 😂 I have a hard time taking 2 and the net
These gear deep dives and a cup of coffee in the morning make for a good Saturday morning . Upside down glasses know it all would say. You should be fishing on a Saturday morning , loser.
Saturday morning i have a work hangover.36 years of drywall will do that.
My name for know it all guy is Dren which is nerd backwards. Also stole it from Happy Days.😂
🤙
Not first to comment
Here for it
Great video guys!
Thank you!
AWESOME!
I think having a rod for every kind of bait is a load of crap, if it’s in the weight limit that’s all ya need to worry about… different rods is more about species specific, having a rod in every length action and power is a gimmick. 🥱
