dirvin21 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 what fish are you targeting? that's usually more how you define the lure type, you'll need a decent rod to effectively work a 75mm double clutch. starting out I would focus on using lures a bit smaller and cheaper 50mm zerek tango shad is a good all rounder and far more economical than a double clutch, small lures catch big fish my biggest flathead was on a 40mm hardbody I'm assuming your fishing landbased, forget trying to get a hardbody down 5m, focus on structure, sandflats and weedbeds etc... you can work the same lure across multiple depths just by raising or lowering your rod tip I personally prefer a twitch pause retrieve the most important thing is to test your hardbody and make sure it swims straight you can use pliers to carefully adjust the tow point until it swims straight any other questions I can answer just ask Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
