Selecting The Right Rod Action (Christmas Edition) Bass Fishing Video

One of the most common questions I get is simple: how do you choose the right rod action? Medium light, medium, medium heavy, or heavy — what do they actually mean, and when should you use each one?

In this video, I break down the four rod actions that cover about 95% of bass fishing, using a simple backbone-to-tip ratio that works across all rod brands. From finesse techniques like drop shotting and wacky rigs to power fishing with jigs, chatterbaits, and heavy cover, this guide will help you match the right rod action to the right technique and catch more bass.

Rod Actions Covered:
• Medium Light (ML)
• Medium (M)
• Medium Heavy (MH)
• Heavy (H)

Thanks for watching, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
