I have many but I’ll speak of my favorites. I have the predecessor to the TCB, known as the TSS or the Trout slayer series. Now out of production but a great rod if you can find it mine is in 6 foot six. I also have a 6 foot six Browning airstream. Cast like no tomorrow and also nice in the hand. My two5 foot six rods are a Fenwick Eagle and old Berkley lightning rod. Both do very well in tight quarters but it’s nice to have a long garage in open water. All of them were a president 20 or 25. Good advice on the lures so far but I use a lot of Bobby garland Itty bitty Slab slayers and Itty bitty swimmers on jig heads lighter than 1/32. Welcome to the madness
