So I have a telescoping daiwa rod I was gifted, but I am a saltwater fisher that has little to no experience in freshwater. I would love to start using it around some lakes and freshwater bodies but have trouble understanding what this rod is capable of.
I currently have it set up with a daiwa bg2500 and spooled with either 4 or 6lb mono. Iâve linked the rod and reel below for more specifics but any advice and knowledge is appreciated! I donât know how big of fish I can target or if this can handle bass or itâs just something like a bluegill/trout rod⊠thanks!

even with 4lb mono you can probably land intermediate size bass with this Light power rod. I have an Ultralight rod with a 500 size reel and 6lb braid and I pull in 14″ largemouth bass. Learn to set your drag correctly and be clever about how you fight stubborn fish and you can pull in much larger fish than you might think.
