I just don't think you're going to be able to use one rod for both... maybe a flipping stick for bass that you could throw Mepps spinners with for muskies or pike. You're going to have to use different line, that's the main thing. Judging from the pike I caught, I wouldn't use anything less than 50 pound braided line. The only bass fishing you'd be doing with 50 pound braid is flipping. I mean, you don't want to use that kind of line for crankbaits, jerkbaits, or anything that resembles finesse fishing.
