It sounds like you are understanding this work very well

Over the years we have enjoyed automatic casting reels with a finger dab required to release the bale-arm (Daiwa made one of these) and reels with bale-arm release levers like the Shimano Syncopate reel in the first photo

This really is a Swiss-army-knife walleye rod, and it will work with a variety of techniques, including hair jigs, glide baits, plastics, Rattlin Raps, and heavier jigs

It gives you enough feel to sense those "something's not right" hits and of course responds well when the fish simply slam your bait

Ignoring Bait Size A hook that works perfectly with a large soft plastic may be completely inappropriate for a small worm or live minnow
