shimano asquith reel 7 8 7/8 Fly With no limits on what reel design should be or look like Shimano SLX Casting Rod

Good looking popper and has ok weight for a topwater

I change mine over to single hooks so it's very easy to get off the fish .The Doc is a classic walk-the-dog topwater lure with an awesome side to side action." My favorite top water lure for striped bass is the 7" or 9" Drifter Doc

These baits are also terrific for skittish bass in super-clear water or lethargic fish that are reluctant to strike outsized offerings after a cold front has passed through

A short description from Echo on the Shadow II series: Light and fast, the Shadow II offers critical line feel and control with an action that will also toss a loop when the bugs start flying. At the Shadow IIs price point ($249.99), I think you will be very pleased with its feel and performance

This also makes it possible to know how much its been adjusted or set it at a predetermined setting
