Is my rod and reel line tough enough to fish for Striped Bass??
I just bought a new reel, rod, and basic equiptment to go bass fishing, more specifically striped bass. The rod I bought is a Shimano FX Spinning Rod – Length: 7’0″, Line Weight: 6-14lbs, Lure Weight: 1/4-5/8oz, Power: Medium, and
Action: Fast — The reel line I picked up is “Ultra Line:Mustad” and holds 14lb (6.4kg) and spans 330 yards (300m) — Is this rod and reel line powerful enough to withstand striped bass out in Nova Scotia, Canada??
Your combination is fine however you definatly need to make sure your drag is set well just in case you catch a fish over 15 pounds. You will still be able to reel them in, it just might take awhile. Good luck!
