MONSTERBASS David Dudley Signature Series Bass Rod
Bass rods are built around technique more than any other species. A finesse spinning rod, a medium-heavy all-purpose casting rod and a heavy flipping stick are three different tools. This page holds every bass rod we carry, from budget to tournament grade.
How to choose
- One rod to start: a 7' medium-heavy, fast-action casting rod covers jigs, Texas rigs, spinnerbaits and chatterbaits.
- Second rod: a 6'10" to 7' medium-light or medium spinning rod for drop shot, Ned rig and wacky worms. See Finesse & BFS Rods.
- Crankbaits: a moderate action or glass blank keeps treble hooks pinned.
- Heavy cover, frogs and flipping: heavy or extra-heavy, 7'2" to 7'6".
- Swimbaits and glide baits: heavy to extra-heavy, 7'6" to 7'10".
