When I fish out of my 14 ft smoker craft I use 4 rods. the first is a 6 ft 6" rod med/hvy rigged with 12lb fluorocarbon line and a blue/black jig with a blue/black worm with a "C" tail cut down to 3 1/2 inches. the second rig is 6 ft 6" med rod with 12 lb Stren ultra braid and a spinner bait. the Indiana Blade is painted the color of a sunfish and has a small gold Colorado blade. The skirt is short Muddler white/gray/silver. The third rod is a 6 ft Med with with 17 lb Vanish Line on it and has an Original Rapala Floating Minnow in silver size F11. the last rod is a 6ft Med/hvy rod with 20lb test Mono with a plastic frog. These cover about 80% of the fishing I do during the day. Of course I may change the Rapala out for a count down or a glass minnow or even a DT series epending on the bite and the bass. You just have be flexible with the lures but 4 rods like this will cover all the bases.
