7 foot boat spinning rod?

The finger lakes you say? There is a huge ns store there can get you anything you need! I would suggest a sponsor but because of your local it doesn't seem practical?

You don't need a spinning rod. You are dropping bait to the bottom and can use a conventional rod being as you are not casting. Uglystik.

Ugly Stick is a good rod, but its not graphite, its a composite and doesn't respond like graphite.. It responds like a decent glass rod.. I have a few Ugly Stiks...

My son wants a heavy duty graphite rod for deep bottom fishing .. Whats the difference if I get him a graphite conventional, or graphite spinner??

I still have to get a heavy duty graphite, might as well get him the correct rod.. Also the reel going on it is a mint condition USA Penn 8500SS.. It will be the best rod reel combo we own.. Why use the wrong rod???... One of our sponsors has already hooked me up it looks like... bob

If you don't mind Bob, who was the sponsor and what was the rod ??

I'm looking for a similar 7 footer, for a baitrunner 4500 I have. It's currently on an 8 foot 2 piece, but I'd like a 7 footer for party boat duty.

Thanks & Merry Chistmas, Happy Holidays to all.
