Dropping for Bass on Vertical Cover Tips LakeForkGuy: We use whatever rod and reel combo best fits the situation. Fishing around heavy cover and for bigger bass, the bait caster is much more effective for getting fish it the boat. The spinning rods just cant handle the bigger line life the bait caster and have much slower gear ratios for pulling in line quickly when you need to. They are however much better with lighter lines and lures and open clear water.

Spinning reels don't seems to take heavy line very well. You can be more accurate with a baitcaster. You have better control of your casting with a baitcaster which is important for pitching or flipping into shallow water so you don; t spook the fish. II only use spinning reels for line 15lbs and under, and for shaky heads or wacky rigs etc.

Heavy line is used in situations where your line can break easily. 6lb fluoro is not going to cut it on lakes with heavy vegetation, or if you're using bristleguarded jigs like he is. If you're fishing 6lb line, and you catch a 5lb bass on okeechobee, you're probably going to drags in another 5 or 7 lbs of weeds.
