Fishing rod power and action is something that I hear a lot of guys lump into one category when they are really 2 different things! Let's talk about it!

When it comes to bass fishing I have always heard guys talk about Medium Heavy Actions and Heavy Action when really this actually doesn't make sense.
If you hear terms like Medium, Medium/Heavy, Heavy then you are redeeming to Rod Power which is different then rod action. Rod action refers to where on the rod the inflection point is.
In this video I break down the differences between the two, and how you can decide what rod to throw with your lure based upon power and action.
BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

What ever happened to the days of just grabbing a rod and throwing whatever ever lure you wanted and catching fish? Now they say 15 different rods for 15 different lures 🤦‍♂️

Way back when there was no action rating on a rod. I remember my old Falcons and All Stars were just labeled with power.

@IkarusTheFallen

Buy a decent quality rod and get the line wet. This is ridiculous

I would say that a medium heavy, too heavy fast action or moderate fast in at least a 7' rod to a 7' 3'' or 6'' will allow you to still land some monster fish and still be able to fish multiple styles from top water, jig, crank, swimming, spinner, and still be able to do that finesse fishing for that lazy fish.

Great video! As a Rod builder I would like to say this sums up a lot of confusion for people. In the same breathe I would like to introduce to you the most underrated and forgotten action in fishing rods..... Mod-Fast! Moderate-Fast actions give you a sweet spot especially for those looking to get more out of a single rod. This is also a perfect action for spinnerbaits and bladed jigs. The one thing not mentioned is there is no standards and regulations in the Fishing Rod market, so each manufacturer has a different definition of what power/action/lure ratings are. They are close but usually never the same.

A small hint: if there is much vibration (like in the case of spinnerbaits) then it is worth to pick a a moderate-fast or moderate action rod instead of the fast one, no matter the hook type

HUGE TIP: pay attention to the line and lure weight recommendations on your rod

why do the makers of the rods call action light/ heavy or whatever. Take Daiwa for example. They call the taper the speed of the rod. Are they just wrong according to you?

My favorite rod I use is a 6'6" Ultra-light Fast Action. So much fun fighting even small stuff.

Well done. Good video. One thing you may want to touch on in the future and something that drives me nuts is how rod companies all come up with their own idea of what certain actions/powers should be. There is no standard in the industry. Even within a single company it can be difficult across different lines of rods that that company makes. You really have to do your research when looking for that perfect rod for a particular technique. Anyways, I always enjoy watching your informative content. Keep up the good work.
