Shimano Waxwing Rod/Reel Combo

Postby muskynut » Thu Jul 18, 2013 9:02 pm

What is the best shimano waxwing rod and reel combo? For fishing with the jr 4.65 inches 1.5 oz. to the daddy 6.6 inches 4.4 ounces. I mostly fish smallies and muskies in fresh water.
Thanks

I would say either the 300ej or 300D paired with an eight or eight and a half foot heavy Terez.
Lots of different retrieves work with this lure. From straight burn to any combination. I like a crank like crazy, micro stop twitch, twitch to get side to side then burn for muskies. also like to add a flashabou tail about three inches long, tied on a separate split ring attached to the rear hook hanger .
I made some floating/dive an rise versions that have great promise.
