WIFE’S NEW HEAVY SWIMBAIT SETUP!! (Shimano TranX 200 BaitCaster & St. Croix Mojo Bass Rod)

Devin got a DEDICATED SWIMBAIT SETUP 🔥
We went to Bass Pro Shops in Grapevine Texas to invest once again, back into the channel, after losing a GIANT on our regular gear throwing large baits!
We currently have one large Swimbait setup which is the Shimano TranX 400 with power handle, but wanted something a little smaller, yet powerful enough to crank those big fish in, and settled on what we could find locally which was the 200HG model, vs. the popular 300 spool size many recommend to fit her grip on the reel yet have a large enough spool to make LONG casts with heavy line. We purchased Seaguar AbrazX 20lb Fluorocarbon fishing line for it, and took it out to a popular lake in Fort Worth, marine creek, with a large lake record to break it in.
Enjoy!!

Great video. Love the channel man. Like the way you describe everything from rod, reel, bait and conditions. You are definitely not afraid to show the bad things that happen along with the good things and that's what we love the most. You can do a series called Devin takes over. Seeing things in her perspective is awesome. Maybe start her own channel? You guys are definitely the ones to watch. Big things headed your way. 👍

[@WestinSmith]

Thanks man!! We are working together on growing the one channel but if she ever wants to do her own it would be great too! I definitely like including vids where she is the focus or takes over the video for the day 🤘🏼

[@coreycubbage7233]

I don’t really know if this is weird or not, but I use the TranX 200 with the 7’6 Medium Heavy Mojo Bass for cranking so I can really bomb a trap. 🤷‍♂️

[@raularce63]

Would that tranx 200 be good to throw some 168 and 200 s wavers??

[@sebastianprice629]

Literally just bought the same combo

[@mythical_samuelyt9977]

1st and cool vids man I love them

[@kylehara856]

You should switch to braid to flourocarbon, you don’t have to worry about break offs and you can use heavier line and still have a thin diameter

[@tegteg798]

I've got the same setup but with a Lew's 300 super duty reel. And be careful with treble hook swimbaits. If you don't horse them in you'll lose alot of fish. But with single hooks it is killer. Mono had been best thing for me with that rod. Even in grass it has the backbone to get them out

[@WestinSmith]

Thanks man! Awesome setup ya got

[@janosczovek8524]

Lovely rod and reel I allso use the seaguar abraze X here in Europe for pike with no steel wire 💪 used it back in Africa as well 👌 hope you enjoy your new combo 😀

Do you have issues with the power handle moving causing the spool to stop mid cast and breaking off lures? Heard that the power handle can be too heavy.

[@WestinSmith]

Haven’t had issues and never heard that 🤘🏼

[@Justin-tp3lr]

Just got that same reel but I paired it on a 7' heavy st. Croix premier and spooled the reel with some 50lb power pro braid.

Finally you hit the lake Ive been hoping you would hit. January 2019 a 14 lb bass was caught there on a jerk bait by the dam opposite of the drain pipe. PS that's a spinnerbait lake this time of year.

Right 😂!!! That would be interesting

[@lmsmbassaddict7779]

I'm here supporting my homie Westin and his wife. Westin that 200 is gonna be just fine with any swim bait. I would much rather the 200 for what I fish. You will love the abrazex but if that don't work go good sunline. Sunline is amazing. I only really use fluoro. I couldn't get on with the mojo bass but the premier was great. I know they are the same rated blank but there was just something about the mojo that made them no where near as sensitive.

[@WestinSmith]

Yeah I hear ya! I’m sure for our use the sensitivity will be fine. We’ve been angling the rod inline with the line on the swimbaits so it seems to be a little different. Probly beats our second hand $40 fate black Swimbait rod 🙌🏼😂
