A little more focus on the application, please.

in his defense i would use the combo he stated for bass fishing all day long if i was solely using live shiners haha but you are right

What's wrong with that combo?

Bass fishing with soft plastics, unless you're drop shotting, is typically the domain of baitcasters. You cannot beat the power to weight ratio not only for hook setting, but pulling fish out of cover. I have a Falcon Coastal, and its a great rod for fishin the flats. But for bass in cover it would easily get bogged down, along with the reel.

My friend, you need to fish a TFO loomis signature.
