Fish Doc, I am by no means an expert when it comes blues and stripers. I have used 6 foot rods quite a bit but it was usually for stand-up yellowfin tuna fishing. the short rod gives you a better angle to fight the tuna. i am not sure if you would want that short of a rod to fight these fish that you mentioned . i have mostly 7 footers on my boat. Are you planning on running these with downriggers?
