whats a good rod and reel combo to fish soft plastics, so that you can cast the plastics a good distance? anyone that knows please respond! thanks!

[GettingSchoold]

@Youngman104 : depending on the cover you are fishing... with sparse cover it is tough to beat 10 to 15 lb braid on spinning... 6'8" to 7'0" medium to medium heavy rod... use fluoro leader if in clear water... it makes a difference.

Are you trying to sell polarized glasses?Will regular sun glasses work?Why do they help?

[GettingSchoold]

@PS3KICKSXBOX : Not trying to sell glasses bud, polarized glasses are designed to cut the glare on the water allowing you to see better. Regular glasses will not help you at all.

[GettingSchoold]

@PS3KICKSXBOX : You can spend anywhere from $20 to over $200 depending what you want. A decent pair can be as cheap as $75 bucks. The cheaper they are, the more distortion and less UV protection you will get. When picking a color, look for green, yellow or rose for good contrast.

So is there an advantage of soft jerbaits over paddle tail or curly tail plastics?

[GettingSchoold]

@masterknaster : the soft jerkbaits excel when looking for a slower presentations and a more subtle approach. Colder water and less aggressive fish are prime for soft jerkbaits.

lol thiers no tail :D

[rickhorror]

@GettingSchoold wrong more money doesnt mean better UV protection. you may get better clarity from the higher priced glasses but you can buy a dollar pair of glasses and get 100% uv protection. They dont even have to be polarized to get uv protection polarizing just removes glare.... I know because i sell them and I dont own a pair!and guess what, still catching fish... this is the least important thing when it comes to fishing. so saying its not possible without glasses is a joke at best.
