baitcast reels with long handles Bates Fishing Salty Hundo Right / 7.1:1 stopping control in its class Lew's Speed Cast Round Reel

Reasons to buy Compact version of a legendary reel The centrifugal brake is great for light lures Thin-wall aluminum spool Consider another model if You are on a budget You need greater line capacity Bottom line The Shimano Tranx 150 is my favorite reel for speckled trout, striped bass and redfish

Best Soft-Plastic Jerkbait: Zoom Fluke Pros Great for covering water Can be rigged weedless Erratic action underwater Cons Not very durable Specs: Size: 4 Key colors: White Ice, Baby Bass, Electric Shad Prime Conditions: Late pre-spawn and early post-spawn Shallow vegetation, bank fishing, shallow stump fields The downfall of hardbody jerkbaits is their inability to come through grass or structure without getting snagged

For the most part, this is also the time of year that I like to go shallow
