Slipknot,
I guess maybe Johnny Scags is only a legend among those other nuts that ply the shoreline from Marshfield to the Canal. I've never met Scags but hear a lot about him. There aren't too many years that pass when he hasn't landed the biggest shore caught bass in that area.
He doesn't do it with mirrors...he is out there just about every night.
I guess he doesn't say too much though. A guy told of meeting him fishing one night. He asked Scags if much was doing. He replied, 'No not much'. As the guy walked by Scags vehicle and looked in back, he almost dropped. There laying in the back was a striper larger than any he had landed. And this guy is a pretty good fisherman. :-))
Hi Mike's,
There are a zillion different rod possibilities out there. If you talk to 20 different people you'll get 20 different opinions.
A soft rod to minimize cast offs and a light rod to maximize your endurance seem to be two necessary attributes the rod must have. But what the hell do I know? I was talking to a comm from Truro the other day and he uses a rod built on an Arra 1204 or 1205! He says its great for eeling! That was right after I put my foot in my mouth and had said,'Great rod for casting but for eeling it really s--ks'. Oh well...
