cowanjo Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Take a look at musky first often the rods you will want 86 minimum my opinion will come up - don't go any shorter - I like the big nasty and sling blade I have winch on sling and tranx on nasty.

Raf Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Ill be honest i love walleye and bass and pike, i just need a new thrill those will become dinner fish and offseason fish 8'6 is good for most baits. i prefer a 7'6 for jerkbaits though dependns how tall you are and whether you fish off the front or back of the boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 8'6 is good for most baits. i prefer a 7'6 for jerkbaits though dependns how tall you are and whether you fish off the front or back of the boat I agree Raf, shorter rods work better for jerk / twitch baits My preference is 7' with a 7000 Abu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 Musky Hunter is on WFN at 2 pm on Saturdays. The same episode will be aired again during next week, I can't remember the day and time off hand. Most of the show Jim was throwing Cowgirls and Bill was throwing a crank bait that looked like a Big Game twitch bait in white perch. They were throwing at the shoreline and they talked about the usual stuff like weeds, weed lines and points. A number of fish were caught after prolonged figure 8s. It was unbelievable how many times they had to go around for a couple of the fish they nailed. Water was stained pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherpete Posted February 28, 2015 Report Share Posted February 28, 2015 You will want a big rod for the Tranx... Like cowanjo mentioned it pairs very well with the 9' St. Croix Big Nasty. $400 though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handlebarz Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 My new favourite combo! Same here have had the tranx a couple seasons but just got my Nast last year it's so far and above from the TI 9' I had before. The musky hunter will be on at 11pm tonight.

Gregoire Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 If you are going with the Tranx and pairing it with an 8'6" rod or larger I'd go with a high speed reel and a jerkbait rod for the other rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
