Need help putting my first striper in my boat.

[Capt. Lou]

U require a specific rod for sure in the bunker spoon game , that being said I've caught on shorter rods but the long rods keep the spoons throbbing especially on smaller boats much better .
I've alwauys preferred 9's with a moderate taper & power . Most don't understand the basics & select rods that R note suited for this technique .
Yes u will catch but not be consistent . Choose carefully it does mean catching consistently or just luck in out once in awhile . It's easy to rig them wrong as well .
Good luck !
