Portsmouth, NH

["Lou"]

My Uncle just bought a boat and has it up in the river in Portsmouth, NH and asked me to help him with some outfits for it. I wasn't too sure how people went after Stripers up there, so I figured I'd ask and see what people had to say. He's planning on fishing in and around the area, his new boat is a 28 Albin, so he's not limited to staying in the river.

In RI I'm usually trolling wire or drifting eels, but im not sure what's productive up there, and consequently, what kind of gear he needs.

He is looking for 3 outfits, I was thinking, 1 Penn jigmaster? the non-levelwind, non-senator one's, on a 20-40 lb rod for jigging, and 2 Senator 112/113's for trolling on either 20-40lb rods or 30-50, possibly for diving plugs or leadcore. Does that sound correct? He wanted to stay away from wireline trolling, if he could.

Any idea's or advice?? Thanks
