ANGLER’S INSIGHT:
At least in the hardcore, heartland of largemouth bass fishing, there exists a stubborn mindset that spinning rods represent a definite downshift in one’s intent and/or expectation. That’s less of a concern in northern smallmouth favorites, but even when we’re targeting the big green ones, a solid finesse program has become increasingly necessary for a well-rounded game plan. Moreover, when we host kids and other beginners, teaching with spinning tackle is much more enjoyable for everyone than picking out baitcaster bird’s nests.
