Weve caught some big smallmouth bass on spinnerbaits, but we use them mostly on summer days when the water is warm and there are a lot of medium size bass moving around looking for food

That being said, I really like the Raven

To remove some of that stress, we asked our experts who range from bait and tackle store owners, to passionate hobbyists, to the President of the International Federation of Black Bass Anglers for their advice on the best beginner rods, bait, and hooks for those on a budget, all of which they promise will guarantee you take something out of the water in your first few attempts

This rod can also be used for Carolina Rigs and as a light punching stick
