baitcasting reel for small rod 600CTS and Combo I Catfish Pro Left / 600CTS Combo + Power Handle / Heavy dark tip and a 600CTS reel with a 5.3 Round Baitcasting Reel Freshwater&Saltwater Fishing

The size is perfect

But if Im throwing a walking topwater really far on 30-pound braided line, Ill want my drag a little tighter to ensure a good hookset on a long cast, and then actually back off of my drag as the fish nears the boat so that its less likely to tear off or open up a hook with the rigid braid and thin-wired trebles

The Bass Pro XPS comes in multiple sizes and colors, works well in every condition, and is incredibly lifelike for attracting fish such as large and smallmouth bass, northern pike, redfish, and striped bass

a slight tick accompanied by a quick pull is your signal to drop your rod tip to about four oclock, wait for a few seconds, then set the hook as hard as you can
