Old Daiwa Minicast Rod + 1960s Abu Spinner
Still Catch Bass on BFS Gear 🎣 | Average Angler Life
Old gear still gets the job done! In this session an old Daiwa Minicast rod proved it works great for BFS-style fishing, and I landed a bass on a vintage Abu Garcia inline spinner from the 1960s.
The classic rod handled light lures nicely, and the old spinner still had enough action to trigger a strike. Mixing older equipment with modern ultralight approaches keeps things interesting and often produces fish.
There’s something satisfying about catching bass on gear that has already seen decades of use.
What’s the oldest rod or lure you’ve successfully fished with recently? Share your stories in the comments!
