    Believe it or not I use 9 ft bus extreme distance rods for my small river fishing and have no problem throwing a decent pack over 70 yards and I've caught my biggest to date on them at 37.4 pounds so I'm sure the rods u r looking at will do u great

    Maybe hair to short not letting the hook turn good enough for a proper hook set as the fish bolts whether running rig or bolt rig the fish will hook itself try a pop up piece of corn on a boilie jmo but to me it sounds as if it's not getting hooked good the run is the fish with the bait in its mouth and it drops it also do a palm test with both the baits u have on see if it turns in ur hand if it don't I would Def try tying ur own up to get the length of hair u need for the bait ur using

    Any one?

    Lol I haven't ruled nothing out yet because the spot I fished was an channel between the two body's of water and a main access to both bodies so anything could be down there I know next time I will be upping my gear hopefully to land more the fish I lost felt heavy and just played me so I'm ready to give it another go

    Went and fished a new lake Sunday night started out with a run quick so I thought it was going to be a good night lost the fish due to my line breaking felt the line and about 10 foot up the line was cuts so I figured my fault I didn't check it next rod goes off same thing now I say to myself that ain't right retie recast rod goes again and the same thing I finally land one only 13lbs I ended up losing 5 or 6 and cut prob 20 feet of line off each rod does anyone have any suggestions to avoid this I like the lake and would like to try it again and maybe land the fish lol
