One Spinning Combo for Bass Fishing (Beginner Bass Fishing)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Today I'm going over setting up one spinning combo for bass fishing. I'll discuss the rod, reel, line, and lures. I'll cover the small things like connection knots and hook sizes too! I really do believe all bass anglers should have at least one spinning combo for finesse fishing. I hope this helps with the questions you all have sent me!

I love a spinning rod. I could careless what people think about me. Spinning combo are able to do a lot.
I fish a casting combo mostly but i must agree that my spinning combos have landed more fish when the fishing is tough. My son fishes only spinning combos and beat me most of the time. I believe that you should fish with the tackle you like the most and agree that the opinions of people doesn't matter. What matters is that you go fishing...
i dont care what other people think either. i bring my spinning rod and fly rod when i fish. i have put down my flyrod and used my spinningrod to cast flies out into top feeding trout in the middle of a lake when it was to windy to use my fly rod. hooked a clear float to my line and ran a leader off it to a black gnat. hook up after hook up and it blew the other fly fishermens minds who couldnt cast far enough due to the high wind. 😅😅
ive fished for trout in creeks with the same set up and with wet flies as well. copper john or some other sinking nymph suspended under the bobber.
love my spimning rod.
I honestly think they're also more fun to use.
Have you tried fly fishing?
I fish spinning all the time on both fresh and saltwater. Easier to maintain and better drag.
The first thing I noticed about this reel is its weight ruclips.net/user/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable but it was a little heavier than other similarly sized reels. However, that didn't deter my enjoyment of how smooth this reel is. I spooled it with 20lb. Tuf-Line XP and it's perfect for what I use it for. I have it paired with an 8'6" Medium/Fast Okuma SST Salmon/Steelhead rod. The combination is perfect for casting and even drifting. I used the reel all day and didn't experience any arm or hand fatigue except when fighting a few fish! The bail is solid and feels strong when engaging by reeling and manually closing the bail by hand. The large rubber handle grip is very comfortable. It's got a powerful drag, silky smooth reeling, and feels very comfortable in the hands. I recommend it!
Brian Latimer is one of my fave pros cause he crushes fish and dudes alike with the spinning rod
i agree.
He is one of my favorites as well
I use my 6'6" medium fast ugly stik primarily for bass, but when I get a smallmouth hooked on my 5'6" ultralight?! WOOOOO BABY is that ever fun!
The 6'6" medium fast Ugly Stik GX2 is a workhorse! It's like a Timex watch...It takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'.
@@mre4875 it does I have 6’6” medium fast ugly stik gx2 and it paired with my kastking speed demon elite spinning reel 3000
THIS is the content all we beginner fishermen need! My dad would just use live bait and tell me lures don't work 😭
My granddad used 3 baits: Heddon tiny torpedo, mister twister curly tail grub...and a ball of earthworms under a bobber casted and reeled in. He caught fish EVERY trip!
Switched to braid to leader this year, game changer! No line twist.
Welcome to the cool people club 😎🔥🤙🏽
1000% never going back, especially once you learn how to tie a new leader quickly if you need it
@@TVlord5 what knot do you use? I use the Alberto knot.
@@chrismash1792 double uni I think. A little bulky if you have tiny guides but for spinning combos it works fine
I catch most of my fish on spinning gear, you just can't beat the numbers that wacky rigs and ned rigs produce. My favorite lure lately has been a ewg ned jig with a Zoom Fat Albert grub. Switching my 2 spinning reels to braid tommorow as well to see if it cuts down on my GF gut hooking with ned rigs.
😅🤣that’s unfortunate
@@legionssb How is that "😅🤣unfortunate" though?
@@JewportMenthols gut hooking? That’s not unfortunate to you...? I never gut hook with Ned rigs so it’s not a ridiculously common issue... that’s all I’m saying. I dunno but I personally don’t like gut hooking fish.
Those Zoom Fat Albert grubs are the truth!!! I've caught most of my bigger fish using them. Great bait
@@legionssb Gut hooking is extremely common with ned rigs, it's a small bait with an exposed light wire hook. A quick Google search will prove its common and most people's biggest dislike about it as a lure. Your emoji use threw me off there.
I almost always throw finesse baits on a spinning rod. Never used braid though… might have to spool some on
Make sure you spool some mono at the beginning so the braid can actually grip. If you don’t there wont be no drag. Then Flurocarbon lead 8lb
I have 11 spinning combos for various types of feeshin, panfish, crappie, drop shot, finesse feeshin and invested in 3 bait casting combos to bank feeshin with. Thanks for all the great suggestions. Now all I need to do is get out and just do it!
Get out there and feesh 💯
Always have a spinning set up ready. They come in very handy sometimes. 7ft medium, 15 lb braid, 10 lb floro leader. Yep, you nailed it.
Hey Debo, love the stuff you do for beginner...really helps. The way you go indepth, show close ups etc. Very thorough. 👌
I don't like them but I have 5 of them plus 2 ultra lights which makes 7 , I Love baitcasting so don't ask how many of them I have now, LOL.
I'm gonna guess all of them 🤣I have a total of thirteen rods my fiancee has 3 I've got an ultralight a light two medium light and a medium heavy fast spinning rod and then I have 8 baitcasters for various lures
I recommend both spinning and bait casting. Just because someone uses a spinning rod does not mean they are a wimp or anything. Stop with the macho wacho stuff and grab a spinning combo. I used spinning since i was a kid and i have been known to out fish people that were using bait casters when i use my spinning gear. I love using bait caster too i find it fun and i like a challenge. But also love my spinning gear too. Spinning gear is so versatile you can pretty much do anything with them. So don't be afraid to use the spinning guys and gals who knows you could have one of your best fishing days using spinning over casting. And i love this video debo keep up the great work.
Love it. Switched to braid on my spinning setup because of your videos and won’t go back to anything else. That Alberto knot is great too! Took a couple tries for me to get it right but easy enough! Keep up the great work! 🎣
I gotta recommend this vid to my friends who will be starting to fish!
Oh, and I use a 1/0 ewg hook on my drop shot. Works like a charm. You will lose less fish :)
I like using a spinning combo when fishing from yaks and from shore when I’m around flooded areas with trees and thick grass and reeds. My go to has always been 7’ with a Shimano or Daiwa spinning reel. My rod brands are mostly Dobyns or Daiwa. I feel you on the hate spinning gear gets from silver spoon “pros” . I love your channel and the input you give the everyday bass nerds...tight lines!
Love a spinning reel, it's all my wife and kids are comfortable using.
Drop shot. Pencil lead sinker, long shank finesse hook, Jackal cross tail, polomer knot, at least a medium rod. Try it, works.
I have only recently started using a baitcaster. I am still using a spinning reel for a lot of my fishing and working more on my baitcaster. I have to say that once you get the hang of it the baitcaster has not made me say any of the words that my spinning reel has. Thank you for all your tips and love for the bank anglers.
Good video.. always carry one or two for all the reasons you listed and they are easier for me to skip under those docks and hanging limbs.
That balance point was spot on, balance is a key factor. I have 1 casting and 3 spinning combos, over the years have learned through experience that a spinning combo can do everything whilst a casting can't handle light, finesse fishing.
I always take my spinning rod for finesse lures. The water in my local lake is ultra clear and the bite gets tough. That light combo and line really saves the day when they are finicky.
I have resisted the braid main line to leader, but am finely gonna give it a try. Main reason is line twist and wind knots with straight flour.
I bought the Lew's Carbon Blue spinning combo about a year ago......use it for drop shotting mostly but man is has been a lifesaver on slow days and clear water.
Spinning tackle is a must period. I fish with everything including Fly rod. I use spinning tackle more than baitcasting or any other. I've won tournaments on them. More versatile and I don't have to spend a fortune. Good video for beginners.
The fuego is 🔥🔥🔥 bait casters are great, but love throwing spinning reels. Usually light weight baits.
I've got a 2 piece Phazer medium power rod, no idea where I got it. Slapped a KastKing spinning reel on it and it's honestly my favorite to use. Feel validated after watching this. Thanks for the viDebo!
Props to debos for convincing me to throw a red lipless. Tough* day of fishing led me to try a cotton Cordell red lipless burned across the top of submerged beaver dam 2 casts 2 fish above 5 lbs two PBS in 2 casts absolutely unbeatable! thank you debo!
Gear vids are great! Keep em coming! My finesse setup is a Field & Stream Tech Spec Black 6’9” Medium Power with a Shimano NASCI 2500 reel. DEBO I LOVE DROPSHOTTING! Once I switched from dropshot specific gama hooks to VMC offset Neko hooks, I stopped having issues losing fish. When I can not buy a bite, I’ll drop shot with a wacky rigged 3” brown senko. Can’t lose!
Very much like this kind of video Debo. Rod/Reel/Line/Hook plus lure/rig breakdowns are always welcome.
Thanks for the video Debo! I like a 3000 size reel. But like the I knob. Shimano’s I knobs are far less expensive then trying too replace Daiwa’s. Most used would be the St.Croix Avid X 7ft ML 2 piece with a Daiwa Tatula Lt 3000 CXH but I changed the T knob to a I knob. Braid 15 Lb to yep 6lb red label! Easy to get threw the trails to the river. Only thing I would change is the micro guides on the rod!
I have 2 spinning combos fenwick rods with 1500 shimano reels I got for Christmas several years ago finally pushing myself to learn how to fish and I have caught a few good bass with them using a wacky rigged sinko! Keeping it realistic I guess but having fun thanks for the great content man!
I always have a spinning rod set up too. I've actually caught some of my biggest fish on finesse set ups. The big fish are smart and sometimes they are line shy. I'll always use 6lb straight floro and it's light's out with a drop shot or a finesse jig
Honestly for budget spinning reel under $100, can't beat the Pfleuger president. Most are $50-60, definitely worth it. They do run larger than shimano or daiwa. They were reels I used for decades before I could afford higher end reels. For $18 you can upgrade the drag to carbon fiber and make it even smoother
Personally I have a 7ft med shimano slx paired with an Okuma slx... 10# yellow super slick power pro.. friggin love this combo! Although I use an fg knot (unless I have to retie while fishing) because I will use a long enough leader that it will go into the reel but dont have any issues ( only fg).. But a spinning combo in ur arsenal is priceless.. many times I missed fish with a t-rig and followed up with a wacky on a spinning combo and got that fish💪💪
I was so hesitant to switch to braid, then I wondered why I waited so long. HUGE difference. 👍🍺🎣
I use several spinning combos Mitchell, Abu, Lews, from 7 foot all the way down to my little 3 foot ugly stick dock runner. Alberto is my knot of choice something i learned watching your channel debo keep it up man love the content..
Always bring my medium 6.6 Ugly Stik GX2 with braid to leader every time I go out fishing. Used to be my main combo with 15 lbs P-line CXX but once I switched to baitcasters it turned into my finesse combo. Also have a 5' GX2 light that primarily ia my Crappie combo unless I use it for my ned rigs. Yes it's a bit short but I don't really worry about chucking the ned rig way out there.
Good video, good advice. Keep up the good work.
I'm a big fan of running a longer leader on spinning reels. I've had the knot go down into the reel and haven't had any issues
Love my spinning combo's, daiwa fuego paired with the halo black widow rod has become my most common go to when I'm beating the banks. Thanks for all the great content Debo!!!!
I'll never give up my spinning reel, always have it with me at any water. Great video Debo, love the reel/rod review & recommendation videos.
I have 5. Bring on more vids! I will watch them!
Man I hated the spinning rod tell last year when I felt the fight on a decent size bass on one now I love it more than casting that pull is so much more fulfilling on a light weight rod versus just horsing them in on casting gear
1 spinning rod and 1 casting rod is all you need for most bass fishing.
Lol. Okay.
@@soevasive you gonna disprove that?.?
"Most bass fishing"
I love my st Croix ML 7ft paired with a shamano Sedona 2500. Finesse fishing is my go to when I slow down
That's a nice combo!
I've caught my pb smallie on a spinning rod and it held up just fine there's nothing weak or sissy like about a spinning rod, 4 lbs 5 oz just so you know
Debo, thanks for the video, it's just beyond common sense to have both spinners and casters! Try making a long cast into the wind using a baitcaster...good luck!
Another information packed video. Love these…casting set-up next please😃
Not gonna lie, I haven’t spent more that $40 for a decent spinning reel. Good job on the “douche bro” impersonation. 👊🏽
As far as what I want to see…Ark rod story!
Caught my first fish (largemouth ~ 1 1/2 lb ish) a few days ago, can’t thank all the videos enough for the help!!
Absolutely agree DEBO! Nuthin’ wrong with a spinning combo and only thing I use for finesse stuff. I’d love to see a vid on spinner baits! Skirt colors, blade choice/color, line to use, rod/reel selection.
spinning set ups always has a time and a place
For light lures like weightless worms I still prefer using casting, braid to leader. Braid helps casting those light finesse lures. It's more about speed and comfort of casting rather than power fishing.
We have a number of spinning combos. My favourite is the medium heavy Shimano Stimula rod paired with the Diawa Sweepfire 3000-2B with 20 pound braid tied to a 17 pound leader same lenght as Debo's in the video. Here in South Africa in my province we have a lot structure and grass so we fish mainly soft plastics texas rigged weedless. My son fishes a Shimano Scimitar medium heavy with a Shimano Slade 2500 FB reel and same line and leader as mine.
I like this video topic, I have 4 baitcasters, and 3 spinning reels, always believed there was a place for both.
I bought a Lew’s Lazer pro the red reel in 300 size and I loved it so much I went back and got another one for a second setup and I got them on sale for $25 each, great little reels and they are 10 bearing reels! 6.2:1 ratio
Debo!!!!!!!!.....I personally love these types of videos. I use a 6'10" MF on my 3 spinning combos I absolutely love that setup and does well for me. Thanks again for another great video.
Bingo! Finesse is the way I roll in my kayak. Might have to try braid to fluorocarbon. Straight fluro is getting too much twist lately.
Great Video sir! I mainly use a baitcastor. I do use a spinning combo for th4 light stuff. I use straight braid but thinking of adding a leader.
Thnx again Debo. In the market for a finess rig. Now I'm in the ballpark of what to look for . 😉👌
My old man only uses spinning gear, he has mostly only used "finesse" presentations. I can't say it doesn't work because he's got more 4-11lb fish than anybody else I talk to. Heck the guy has even caught a 40 inch Muskie on a 7' medium fast spinning setup with 8lb mono. It was a lot of luck/skill but I watched him do it. My setup is a dobyns 7' medium fast with a pfleuger supreme. It is always setup with a wacky, auger worm, or ned rig; and it is always on deck. Got to have the follow up lure ready!!
Yes I love these videos. They are very helpful!!
I use a 7’medium light action rod/100 size bait caster with 12lb fluoro for soft jerkbaits/wacky jig/shakey head/Ned rig. It double as a light inshore setup also.
I just picked up a new combo. Shimano Ultegra 3000 2021 with a st croix 7’1 Medium Victory spinning rod. My go to spinning set up for drop shot, Ned rig, and for 3.3in swim baits. I’m loving it a lot.
I have had fishing rods for years and never used them its been close to a decade since the last time i went fishing but this year im taking the dive and this channel is helping me learn a lot
One bait caster combo and one spinning reel combo has been my go to setup for bank fishing. Excellent video Debo!!
Just got a Pflueger President Model 30 with a Falcon BuCoo (7' Medium/Moderate) rod running 15lb Power Pro braid. Love the setup for throwing light stuff!
Debo.. great videos man! As you know, there are a ton of guys making fishing videos out there and I watch them all( as I am new to fishing)but I have to tell you man you have just the right technical to entertainment to informational instruction that I have seen. I always find myself going back to all of your videos. I totally learned how to use a bait caster watching your videos. Super simple stupid and you have a cool way explaining it! Great job man. I appreciate ya. Downtown earth videos. This commit seems like I’m bromancing on you but seriously, great vids.
Sorry man.using my daughter Ipad. Hence the girls user name
I have four spinning reels and one bait casting reel. I’m new to baitcasting so it’s easy to go back to a spinning reel and in my comfort zone.
I've had friends refer to it as "a fairy stick," but I caught a 5lb 3oz bass on a buzz bait- thrown from a spinning combo. Using braid is the great equalizer! I use baitcasters more, I like using them more also, but I will typically bring 1 spinning rod for when I need to slow down. I would add- when fishing around white bass: It's so much fun to tie on a white rooster tail & use the spinning rod. 5 or 6 of those can be a workout, lol.
I grew up using spinning gear so I’ve always got 1 with me ( sometimes 2 ) my favorite has to be a Lews Carbon Fire 300 size on a 7’2” med 13 Fishing Defy Black rod . Love the video and content
How’s the lews carbon fire reel? I’ve seen it a couple of times and thought about getting it
@@ianbriddell42 I’ve got 2 and love them. For a $70 reel they perform at a much higher price point
I always wanna catch em on a frog, jig, or other power fishing technique but I always bring a spinning rod in case the bite is tough... and an ultralight in case the bite is ridiculous 😅🤣
If anyone on a budget is looking for a good spinning reel, you can't go wrong with the okuma ceymar.
I like these videos. It took me a while to figure out to use primarily braid on most of my reels. I've put brand new mono on reels and had it coil and unwind. Thanks for the tips.
Just pure fun and solid info. Debo does it again.
Awesome rig video! Keep it up! I've taken your advice and use spinning rigs for finesse presentations; haven't been disappointed.
Your tutorial videos are absolutely some of the best out there. Thanks for showing the knot that you tie for your leader to main. I’ve been using the FG knot for a while now and you couldn’t have been more correct when you said it’s a difficult knot to tie.
YEAH This was very informative. I'm going to do one also I have slowly built up my arsenal over the past years. And I'm going to cover the difference in lines full Fluro vs braid to leader the pros and cons. THanks DEBO you always put out some awesome Content.
Love this type of video. I understand what you have to say and since you are in Iowa, it applies to me too.
Tried braid out this year on a spinner. Oh man the sensitivity it crazy! Even with a mono leader
I generally use 6 to 7 foot spinning rods for inline spinners and lightweight topwaters and Rapala style baits. I use either a 5'8" or 5'9" spinning rod for Texas rigged 4" worms, as well as 4" worms and grubs on open hook jigheads.
I have that same Lewis Custom paired with a
Pflueger Presidente reel. 10lb braid. 8lb mono leader and i love it for drop shots. I switched to those VMC hooks after one of your videos. Drop shot works. 👍🏼
The timing of this videos is perfect! I have been catching non stop bass at my pond with my spinning combo with braid to leader line and using a weightless soft plastic and absolutely destroying em! Thank you again for the informative vids debo!!👍
Thanks for all the info debo. I'm not really new to bass fishing, but havent fished for bass since I was a teen. Mostly fished for catfish and carp since then. I have 3 spinning rods. Setup with different finesse presentation. 2 baitcaster setups. I have these setups because of everything I've learned watching your channel
Grew up fishing with my grandfather and all he used was a spinning reel , and a fly rod . I’m trying to build a good bass rod and reel , I’m just comfortable with them !
I primarily use spinning reels as I throw a lot of small swimbaits and flukes. I think the fight on spinning rods is also a lot more fun than a baitcaster .
Facts. Something about knowing that spinning rods are pretty much designed to bend further and towards the line guides instead of away from them, let’s me not worry about my rod bending too far while fighting even a smaller bass
Man i tried the little Drop Shot setup on a spinning Rod for the first time with great success lol. I started using a version of the Drop Shot-weight setup 40 years ago for Catfish and it’s absolutely nothing new but extremely effective in a downsized form lol.
Suffix Nano braid is awesome but the Suffix 832 is my favorite
The spinning reel I use is a wally world special. It get the job done though!!
I use 6.6ft - 7ft medium, fast action spinning rods with 2-3000 size reels.
Favorite spinning in arba Garcia major League fishing combo a great set up
I was raised on a spinning reel and tend to reach for it first. I haven’t tried braid yet but want to. 7 ft medium fast action with a 3000 reel is the first I would have in my arsenal . Really enjoy your videos.
I still use my ugly still med/heavy from 5 years ago and love it
I use both spinning and casting, I've been loving my st.croix victory 7'3 medium it's been awesome
I broke down and got a victory too! I got the 7’2” MH moderate and it’s quite possibly the lightest casting rod ever. Never spent more than 130 on a rod but I had to do it cause I love the BassX
Sissy stick or not you gotta have one in the arsenal. I’m actually wanting to add a second for the summer. One for wacky/neko and one for Ned.
Several casting rods, but I take a 6'6" medium fast spinning rod with I think. 3000 reel on it for my lighter setups as well. I asli have an ultralight that goes with at times and a catfish specific rod which is a spinning rig for the nights I just want to sit and watch the water. Definitely like these vids as I'm always looking for new information that I may not know. The and for the vid and always great content!
I use spinning tackle once in a blue moon...mostly because I feel guilty for the $$ I paid on some setups.
But 95% of the time it's baitcasting (BFS or "regular").
Great video for folks to watch. I love my two Lew's Mach Smash reel and rod combos. $79.99 and has been a workhorse for me. I've been using 15lb braid to 10/12lb fluorocarbon and has worked well for me. Big advocate for a bass angler to have a spinning combo or two. Sometimes that's the only way you're going to get bit. Dropshot/neko/ned rig - typically one of those is going to net you a bite when nothing else will. Enjoy this IA heat, Debo. Looking forward to your next feeshing adventure!
I love the Fate Black. Have several. You always get great deals! Do you have a video on spooling a spinning reel with braid?
