What's your favorite perch rod/rig

[freddie]

I've been using braided with a stiff rod, and I hold it. Sometimes I'll have one in each hand. That can get busy if you're on the fish though The guys I fish with all perch with softer rods, braided. And just lay the rods down and watch them (using 2 rods).

I like the feel of the braided line a LOT. I wouldn't perch without it anymore

I like 7 ft medium light action rods with 8# mono berkely trilene XL. I must be old school, but it works for me. I usually fish with just one pole as the bite is pretty light.

I fish with 6-6 medium action rods. I use reels with braid and if I feel I need mono on I'll nail knot a 6' section on. Mostly, I just have a swivel on the end of the braid and hook it to the spreader or whatever rig I have on. I usually try to fish two rods but, if the fish start biting too fast I switch to one rod.

I use a bait caster med light action rod with braided line, i like it so much better than mono. Its the only time I use a bait caster, just press the button and the line spools out by itself, I usually work two rods and I can either bait or tend the other rod as the line goes out.

Wayne I always use the tru-turn #4 or #2 gold color. Does the red work better? When the bite is on they hit anything

we have experment for last few years, on tougher days red hands down , fast bite brown gold or red, bigger fish seem to come on red, I use true turn on my single hook rigs, also skipper nine use red hooks on his rigs, last weekend fri. and sat.
biggest perch came on skippers 9 rigs, ethier rig just takes some time to learn how to fish.
